Balvenie 12 Year Old – Golden Cask Whisky

This Balvenie single malt was originally released as a Travel Retail exclusive, but here’s your chance to grab a bottle without going on holiday! The whisky finished its 12-year maturation in casks seasoned with a bespoke rum blend, selected for its golden, caramel-rich character, the result is a rich and characterful sipper, brimming with notes of sweet honey and spice, soft stone fruits, and a touch of tropical coconut.

A TROPICAL WHISKY BORN FROM TWO DISTINCT CLIMATES.Crafted with patience and expertise at The Balvenie Distillery, The Balvenie 12 Year Old Golden Cask is a whisky shaped by contrast – where the warmth of the Caribbean meets the cool embrace of Scotland. This addition to our collection is a testament to the art of cask finishing, delivering a rich, tropical complexity unlike any other.

Cask Finished

A longer journey, makes a sweeter finish; matured for 12 years in traditional whisky casks, this single malt first develops The Balvenie’s signature notes of warm honey and smooth vanilla. It is then finished in bespoke rum-seasoned casks, created by blending rums aged under the Caribbean sun with those matured low and slow in Scotland’s Speyside air. This unique process infuses the whisky with bold layers of candied fruit, toasted oak, and delicate spice.
