Glen Garioch 12 Year Old

Glen Garioch 12 Year Old is a traditional Highland single malt whisky from the Aberdeenshire region, considered one of the oldest continuously operating Scottish distilleries, founded in 1797.

This whisky is bottled at a strength of 48% ABV, with no added coloring and no chill filtration, giving it natural fullness and authentic character. It matures in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks, which provides a balanced profile between sweetness, spiciness, and fruity notes.

The aroma features notes of honey, vanilla, creamy sweetness, gentle spice, and oak, complemented by hints of flowers and nuts.

The taste is full and robust, with layers of caramel, sweet barley, roasted almonds, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ripe fruit. The finish is long, gently warming, with touches of sherry sweetness, nuts, and a subtle smoky veil.

Best enjoyed neat at room temperature, though a few drops of water can open up additional layers of fruitiness and spiciness. Glen Garioch 12 Year Old represents the classic Highland style – robust, full, yet elegant.
