Description
Whiskey: Glenkinchie 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch
Replacing the 10 year-old as the main expression of the Lowland style in the Classic Malts range, this Glenkinchie 12 Year Old is a bit fuller and more complex.
Size: 750ML
Proof: 86 (43% ABV)
Age: 12 Year
Origin: Scotland
Distillery: Glenkinchie distillery
The flagship expression from the Glenkinchie distillery, one of the stalwarts of the Lowlands. A fantastic introduction to the region, Glenkinchie 12 Year Old shows off the characteristic lightness and grassy elements that Lowland whiskies are known for, with nods to cooked fruit and Sauternes wine along the way. Brilliant single malt to enjoy as an aperitif on a warm evening.

Nose: A light, aromatic nose with hints of barley malt, almonds, hazelnuts and manuka honey/beeswax.
Palate: Very fruity palate with a mix of stewed fruits, dessert wine, apple peels and honey. Becomes quite oaky late palate.
Finish: A medium-length finish with barley and freshly mown grass…
Distillery Information
Located less than 20 miles southeast of Edinburgh, Glenkinchie is one of three remaining distilleries in the area called the Lowlands. They only have two stills at the distillery, but they are fat and large producing over 1 million liters per year. The size and shape of the still lends the spirit to be light in nature as it comes off the still.
