Tasting Notes
Black Bull 12 Year Old, a classic blend crafted by Duncan Taylor, offers a delightful symphony of flavors. The nose greets you with an enticing aroma of sweetness, reminiscent of cereals and succulent berry fruits, complemented by nutty undertones, tangy accents, and hints of spices and cocoa. Upon taking a sip, the palate is enveloped in a thick and rounded texture, where nuttiness and softness harmonize with the luscious flavors of orchard fruits and a velvety touch of cream. As the whisky lingers, the finish delivers a satisfying thickness and fruitiness, with a subtle hint of under-ripe fruits, cradled in a creamy embrace. This expression, having earned a prestigious Gold Medal at the 2011 International Wine and Spirit Competition, is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and blending prowess that has characterized Black Bull since its inception in the 1930s.
