Whisky review: The Balvenie 14 ans Caribbean Cask, bottled @ 43%
-The long awaited rum Cask !
Colour: pale yellow, light straw, medium bodied.
Nose: vanilla, sugar canes, light wood sap, rum notes, agricultural rum,
Mouth: light vanilla, spices, nice sweet rum notes, sugar canes, white fruits, bit rough, hints of oranges.
Finish: lingering fruits, sugar canes notes, spices.
C+ for the price. 110$ seems a bit high considering its age as the Balvenie Doublewood goes for 84$.
A for presentation. Nice clean looking Balvenie.
B for the taste. Interesting rum finish, yet, a tad too sweet. It would have been nicer to try older rum cask to get more wood influence.
