Tasting Notes

Indulge in the Breath of the Highlands 12 Year Old 2009, a delightful whisky that invites you on a journey through the Scottish Highlands. Upon nosing, you're greeted with the enticing aroma of a sticky fruitcake, rich cocoa nibs, and warm oak notes that tantalize the senses. As you take a sip, the palate is enveloped in a delightful medley of flavors, from the decadent panforte to the candied citrus peel and vibrant summer berries, all harmoniously balanced with the depth of dark chocolate. The finish lingers with baking spices and dried fruits, leaving a lasting impression on your taste buds. This 12-year-old single malt, meticulously matured in ex-sherry casks, was bottled at cask strength by Adelphi in 2022, ensuring its bold and authentic character remains intact. Non-chill filtered and without any added color, this whisky is a true representation of the distillery's craftsmanship and the unique terroir of the Highlands.
