Balvenie 18 Year Old French Oak Pineau Cask Whisky 70cl
Balvenie 18 Year Old French Oak Pineau Cask Whisky
Crafted in the heart of Speyside, this refined single malt Scotch whisky showcases the influence of French oak and an uncommon wine cask finish. After beginning its maturation in traditional American oak barrels, it undergoes an extended eight-year finish in casks that previously held Pineau des Charentes, a fortified French wine.
- The Balvenie 18 Year Old French Oak Pineau Cask Whisky offers aromas of honey and vanilla, lifted by fresh orchard fruits such as apple and pear.
- On the palate, the influence of the Pineau casks brings out notes of citrus zest, dried fruits and warming kitchen spices like ginger and nutmeg.
- The texture is silky and rich, carrying through to a finish of sweet grapefruit and soft, lingering warmth.
This Balvenie whisky pairs beautifully with creamy cheeses, such as Brie or Chaource, and dishes with caramelised or roasted elements.
