Balvenie Doublewood 12 Year

Boz Scags singing lido. With a hint of oak finish and hint of dandelion finish

I liked this pour quite a bit. I didn’t take notes, but I will be buying a bottle at some point. I can see myself sipping on this in the fall or spring, even summer.

1oz taster. Nose: Bursts with bright fruity and grassy character which subside after a few minutes in the glass. Notes of lemon, grapes, and celery. Caramel and toffee notes follow with a background hints of wet wood and milk chocolate. Taste: Sweet and nutty. Texture is thin and smooth. Notes of burnt butterscotch and toffee with some slight oak character. Finish: Butterscotch and slight bitterness. Short. The nose is very inviting and unique. For me, the taste fell short as it felt very thin and much less complex. I think I will have to revisit this again at some point and drink this alone as maybe the other whiskies I had before drowned out this low ABV dram.

Nice, slick, quick cheaper scotch with a bit of attitude on the edges. Fruity aggression.

Soft, sweet nose. Sweet tones with a woody end and a smooth finish.
