The Smoky Twelve is the perfect marriage of fruit,malt, oak and rich layers of smoke. Crafted from a combination of unpeated and peated spirit and three cask matured for at least twelve years in bourbon barrels, sherry casks, and Marsala wine casks. The whisky from each cask is then expertly married together to create a smooth, creamy single malt, multilayered with flavours of ripened fruit, aromatic smoky sweetness and warming oak spice. Tasting Notes: Burnished gold color. A nose of smoked vanilla, charred orange and toasted almond. Tastes of dark chocolate, fruit peel, brown sugar and smoked oak, lingering into a cocoa and orange smoked finish. Rich smoke level.

Apples, pound cake, treacle, almond nougat, and vanilla aromas set up the palates inherent sweetness, but pay attention to the note of oyster shell minerality and wafting woodsmoke, so well integrated as to be hardly noticeableat least until you take a sip. Sweet smoke drifts over toasted almond, Golden Delicious apple, cinnamon, and Swiss Miss hot cocoa, all sprinkled with smoked salt. It finishes with grilled apple and flavored tobacco, the smoke persistent but never ashy, and a silky texture thats as gentle as a caress.(Individual reviewer rating: 92)
