Balvenie Single Malt Scotch Whisky 40 year old

Nose: Rich oak notes overlaid with baked apple, stewed fruits and soft leather. The addition of a little water releases sweet fruit notes and hints of vanilla. Taste: Silky texture delivers a beautifully mouth-coating sweetness and a spicy sensation of cloves, cinnamon and ginger. The flavour develops into gentle oakiness with hints of dark chocolate, roasted almonds and a sherried fruitiness. Finish: Rich, warming and slightly dry.
