Overview

More Info

Inspired to produce an even fruitier, sweeter Balvenie whisky, Malt Master Kelsey McKechnie had the bright idea to import Virgin Oak barrels from Kentucky. After deep toasting them at The Balvenie Cooperage they were filled with Balvenie aged in ex-bourbon barrels.

Reviewers on Nice Sipper, Whisky Buzz and Words of Whisky praise Balvenie's 12yo Sweet Toast of American Oak for hard-candy lemon, vanilla, brown sugar and oak spice from its Kentucky virgin-oak finish. Whiskey Reviewer calls it an easy, broad-appeal sipper. Some critics find the toasted oak overpowering — solid but slightly polarizing reception.
