Pronounced La-Froyg, which in Gaelic means "the beautiful hollow by the broad bay", offers an immediate and distinct peaty and briney nose. The body is light, crisp and dry. The palate puts forth powerful flavors, strong peat, spices and malt. The finish is medium and clean, and a hint of briney smoke lingers.

To The Eye Rich golden bronze. To The Nose Blackcurrant, brown sugar, orange, plum and raisin. To The Tongue Fruit and syrup. Hazelnut with hints of cinnamon and lemon. A butterscotch sweetness adds to the overall complexity. To The End Fresh and fruity, with long lasting oaky sweetness. This unique Lowland has been matured in three different cask types. Moving from American Bourbon to Spanish Oloroso Sherry - and finally Pedro Ximenez Sherry casks - Three Wood is a rich, complex whisky with incredible toffee and sherry oak flavours.

The Balvenie DoubleWood sees the whisky matured first in American oak barrels, which impart soft sweet vanilla notes, before being transferred to European oak sherry casks, where the second cask ageing adds rich spicy flavours and a depth and fullness of flavour. The DoubleWood 17 Year Old has honeyed, spicy characteristics, with deeper vanilla notes, hints of green apple, creamy toffee and a striking richness and complexity.

The first whiskey distillery in Taiwan. Lively and passionate amber color. Clean, elegant, floral notes, with hints of honey, tropical fruits (mango in particular), pear drop, vanilla, coconuts and suggestions of chocolate. In the mouth, a hint of sweet mango juice with that spicy complexity and gentle warmth on a medium, oily and citrus finish. |
