Neat. Neck pour. First Balvenie experience bought on the recommendation of Whisky Central.
Presents itself as a standard single malt on the nose. I am getting these nice hits of the sherry. A really nice sweet honeycomb. Lots of vanilla. Hint of oak.
Creamier mouth feel than I was expecting. Honey sweetness coming through again up front.nice melody of fruits and vanillas. There is a nice build up of oak on the finish as I sip more of it, which really evens out the experience.
Just a pleasantly sweet, easy sipping single malt. Really like the honey. I could just relax with this on a nice fall evening, watching the leaves fall off the trees. (That is exactly how I am enjoying this right now.)
