When we think of Scotch it’s easy to get wrapped up in Highland and Island whiskies, but the Lowlands shouldn’t be forgotten. Glenkinchie is one of the region’s most celebrated distilleries and their 12-Year-Old bottle is a perfect introduction.

It’s very light in its characteristics, with grassy elements that are so often associated with southern Scottish whisky - perfect for a warm evening aperitif with a few friends.    

Flavour Profile: Nose

Aromatic & wistful, the nose possesses gentle hints of barley malt, almonds, hazelnuts & honey.

Flavour Profile: Palate

Stewed fruits dripping in sticky wine, fresh apple peels & honey stride across the palate towards a late oaky appearance.

Flavour Profile: Finish

Freshly cut grass, a handful of barley & malt contribute to a medium-length finish.
