Looking for something similar to the Balvenie 12 yo DoubleWood

[cabaiguan juan]

I really liked this as my first single malt. I was wondering if anyone here could point me in the direction that would lead me to a single malt that is very similar in flavor to this one. I think it was the "Double Wood" aspect that really appealed to me.

If it fits in your budget then the Balvenie SherryOak is very good also. About $90 around here. The Glenmorangie Lasanta is very similar but with even more sherry influence IMO. It runs about $60.

Ray, do you have anythng in mind for around 30 to 50 ish?

The Dalmore 12 or the Aberlour 12 fit into that price range.

Thanks. The Dalmore is actually on sale in MC. Gotta love Montgomery.

This might be too much sherry, but is one of my favorites for $45, Aberlour A'Bunadh.

you know, i have been eyeing that bottle for a little bit now.

It is very concentrated as its a cask strength SMSW and 100% sherry oak aged. I think its a love/hate type of whisky. I absolutely love it and prefer it neat with a cigar.....yummm
