TASTING NOTES BALVENIE TRIPLE CASK 16 YO

Nose

very fruity, with sweet aromas of plum and candied fruit. Then wood and vanilla, which are soon joined by intense caramel nuances.

Palate

wood and white pepper, enriched with honey. A touch of cocoa, then wood again. A note of ripe fruit (pineapple and peach) is also perceptible. Sweet.

Finish

medium persistence. Pretty dry. A lot of wood.

Overall, the Balvenie Triple Cask 16 yo is a product with excellent balance. It is very easy to drink and has a fairly structured flavor profile.

Rating: 85
