Nose
Abundant dark fruit—raisins and dried plum notes prominent.
Palate
Softer up front than the 9-year, less peppery on entry with subtle white pepper in the back; traditional caramel and brown sugar with dried fruit character; smooth finish without excessive dryness.
Finish
Long, smooth finish with lingering sweetness and minimal drying.
Overall Score
4 / 5
A refined 12-year expression with richer fruit complexity and softer approachability—worth seeking out as a premium sipper.
