About

Auchroisk 2010 Vintage 100 Proof Edition #12 hails from the renowned Auchroisk distillery, nestled in the heart of Scotland's Speyside region. This 13-year-old single malt whisky showcases the distillery's commitment to quality and craftsmanship, bottled at a robust 57.10% ABV. On the nose, expect a vibrant bouquet of fresh flowers and fruits, complemented by the richness of dried fruit and a hint of citrus. The palate reveals layers of caramel, honey, and malty sweetness, balanced with oak and nutty notes of almond and walnut. The influence of the first-fill sherry butt adds depth, introducing dried spices, sherried richness, and a touch of brininess. A complex finish features leathery and tobacco undertones, with a subtle smoky character. This original bottling is not just a testament to Auchroisk's heritage but also has garnered appreciation among whisky enthusiasts for its intricate flavor profile, making it a noteworthy addition to any collection.
