Tasting Notes
Imagine a cozy evening by the fireplace, with the crackle of wood mingling harmoniously with the rich aroma of this North Star Blend 10 Year Old 2012 whisky. As you pour a dram, the inviting scent of warm porridge and freshly brewed coffee wafts through the air, intertwined with hints of ripe stone fruits and a delicate vanilla sweetness. With the first sip, your taste buds are greeted by a delightful blend of buttery biscuit notes and the comforting flavor of toffee, while zingy red fruit and a touch of cinnamon add a delightful zing. Underneath, subtle fennel and oak spice linger, adding depth and complexity. As you savor the finish, notes of zesty lemon peel, barley sugar sweeties, and syrupy flapjack linger on your palate, punctuated by a sprinkle of peppery heat. This exceptional blended Scotch whisky, a 2012 vintage aged for a decade in sherry butts, is a true gem from North Star Spirits' Cask Series 21, with only 802 bottles released in 2022.
