After nearly a century of adventures and discoveries, CUTTY SARK has gathered its passion and expertise to create a 12 year old high quality Whisky. Offering a mellow mouthfeel, the expression is balanced by complex notes of spice and fruit.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Alluring, golden, and bright
Nose: Dried fruits and poached pears with caramel and gentle clove spice notes
Palate: Malty and bread notes blend into fresh tropical fruit, rhubarb, ginger pudding, vanilla, and a subtle hint of chocolate
Finish: Citrus fading to a wood spice and gentle sea salt sensation on the lips
Elaborated With Commitment And Precision
The expression is matured over 12 years in carefully selected Bourbon and Sherry Casks. Then the Whisky goes through a marrying process. Allowing it to be filtered at a higher temperature to retain smooth flavors.
“Aged for 12 years in hand selected oak casks and with notes of dried and tropical fruits, spice, cloves, ginger, and a subtle hint of sea salt, CUTTY SARK 12 YO Blended Scotch Whisky pays tribute to the ship’s many anchor points and its long, proud maritime history.
”Stephen Woodcock, Master Blender
A Statutory And Audacious Whisky
“The extra age and body are carried gracefully in a well-balanced blend that shows an extra dimension to CUTTY SARK Original. A welcome addition to the range and one that will appeal to drinkers looking for the ‘sweet spot’ of quality and value. Works well as a stand-alone dram or in mixed serves
“Ian Buxton, Whisky Expert
