Tasting Notes
To The Eye
In appearance, each bottle has a crisp golden honey hue. What gives whisky its colour? The maturing process over 12 years as the liquid comes into contact with the barrel. The longer a whisky matures will determine its colour and flavour profile.
To The Nose
A Single Malt Scotch whisky with a distinctive aroma of crème brulee to the nose with a burst of citrus and then the signature nuttiness and green leafiness you would expect from Auchentoshan.
To The Tongue
A smooth whisky taste with sweet notes along with hints of tangerine and lime characterise this 12 year old.
To The End
This particular whisky offers a gingery and slightly dry finish with a pleasant, lingering nuttiness.
