Balvenie 17 Sherry Oak evolves through relatively low levels of alcohol (43%) since the aromas are quite open and are not absorbed in the high alcohol levels of the cask strength whiskies. Additionally, the taste and feel left in the palate and at the finish is exactly what a demanding whisky lover is looking for.
Complex, sweet and rounded – with a spicy oak finish. This is the taste of distilling slower than anyone in Scotland, and of barley we dry by air, never peat.
