Tastes

Deep raisin and dark plum. Long finish.

The most interesting whiskey I’ve ever tasted. It’s different every time.

Very smooth and flavorful.

The tasting notes on here are spot on. A very nice bourbon. I don’t prefer most bourbons, as I tend to be more of a scotch drinker. To others like me that want to find a nice bourbon, wheated bourbons may be the way to go. This is my first one and I really like it.

I will have to say, I’m a big Balvenie fan and had been looking forward to this 17 year because I enjoy the 12 year so much. That said, I was underwhelmed by this, considering it’s age and price point. It felt like a scotch this was trying to be everything, but not great at anything. I enjoy the 12 much more and many others that cost far less.

Everything Balvenie makes is good. This is good, but not as good as I had hoped for the price point. Nice introduction of the wood wo being too much. It's also a little thin with mouthfeel. Still at nice selection. I was maybe just expecting more.

A fantastic scotch with a lot of flavor. A little malty sweet. A little salty. A little smoke. A little oak. It is a scotch that gives you a little of everything. Its hands down one of my favorites.
