“Longer maturation brings more aromatic layers to our distinctive smoky style. For me, it’s baked orange in a wonderful cake, fired over an open fire, with dark chocolate flavour.”

Description
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 casks 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.
