    This is my favorite 12 year dram. I just love how balanced it is with an incredible aroma and taste. Well done Balvenie!

    This is reasonably priced in Japan at about ¥5,000-6,000 yen (roughly $50-60) and really sets a high bar for introductory whiskeys. Thank you for reviewing this one!

    Can't believe I waited 2 years to taste this. An amazing whiskey.

    Outstanding whiskey. I wouldn’t say it is for beginners. This whiskey stands out in smoothness and complexity.

    Bought this at the Interspar in Wien Hauptbahnhoff last year for 40 euros as it was on sale for New Year. I hope they will repeat it this year too

    I cant wait to try this next payday! I am new to scotch whisky but I am pretty sure I like the more sherry forward whisky after trying Macallan DC. I remember a previous video on this and when you mentioned oranges you had my attention!

  • @peacekeeper9840
    @peacekeeper9840 Год назад

    Question - if the whiskey was matured in Oak and sherry, how are we smelling Vanilla, oranges, fruits, chocolate and other smells?
    Those smells are just in our head created by our mind.

    Just bought this from my local bottle shop... The tin had lots of dust on it... Now I know why, it's also a 25th anniversary bottle

    He said its not stinky but its a speyside scotch, it definitely has a bit of that musty malt note on the nose and palate.

  • @mikecoco346

    Great whisky my favorite or at least one of them but it’s 40% now instead of 43% like the older bottles!

    I opened a bottle the other day, really intense sweet full of flavour / sherry had a glass a few days later and it was as though I was drinking a completely different whisky , is this a common experience ? or have I got a duff bottle?

    • @vonhovian9980
      @vonhovian9980 4 года назад

      Completely normal. Once you open a bottle of whisky the flavor will evolve as it "breaths" over time. Probably some chemistry takes place, oxidation, evaporation, ect?? A lot of whiskys benefit from this, some not so much depending on your taste.

    • @deifor
      @deifor 4 года назад

      When I opened mine, i was a little disapointed. A few minutes later is balanced out but at the beginning it smelled or tasted (don´t remember) a bit metalic. I hope the next time I poor some it keeps getting better. Also, I was eating pork with lots of pickled onions so maybe that's why.

    • @Ice-Fall
      @Ice-Fall 4 года назад +2

      @@deifor Would have had the pork with a beer, the whisky, before the meal.

      Try Redbreast 12, usually mentioned amongst Irish whiskeys; Horst did a review back in 2015.

  • @miltonthatherton1375
    @miltonthatherton1375 Год назад

    Tropical fruit salad with a peculiar coarse sweetness. Reminds me of the Glenfiddich 15, but this has a sharper, more interesting character.

  • @Kell4088
    @Kell4088 4 года назад

    A little light on depth and flavor. It’s a bit too drinkable for my taste, much in the same vein as a Mac12. But if you’re looking for something with complexity, keep looking.

    For me, this is the worst whiskey of any kind that I’ve ever had. I must be sensitive to the tannins of tired old wood. I get strong notes of bile and vomit. Thanks for the video.

    • @Dynamikcheese
