Auchentoshan 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750 ml

Description:

A more recent release from the Auchentoshan distillery, replacing the previous staple 10-year-old, this 12-year-old bottling launched at the same time Auchentoshan had a dramatic rebrand back in 2011. Triple distilled and matured for over twelve years. This whisky is elegant and refined, with those classic Auchentoshan notes of vanilla and almonds.

Nose: A cereal-sweet nose with notes of guava and mango, with a drizzle of honey.

Palate: Oaky and sweet palate, with barley sugar, a little passion fruit and vanilla custard too. Perhaps some rose petal jelly in there.

Finish: A lengthy, dry and oaky finish with barley sweetness and cocoa powder.
