Auchentoshan 12 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Scotch whisky that bridges the gap between approachable and sophisticated?

The Auchentoshan 12 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky represents the pinnacle of Lowland craftsmanship from Glasgow, Scotland. What sets this expression apart is its rare triple distillation process – a technique that creates exceptional smoothness compared to traditional double-distilled Scotches. This makes it remarkably approachable for newcomers while maintaining the complexity that seasoned enthusiasts appreciate, similar to our Benromach 10 Years or the refined Glenmorangie 12 Years Original.

• Distillery: Auchentoshan Distillery – established 1823 in Glasgow
• Region: Lowlands – known for gentle, elegant expressions
• ABV: 40% – perfectly balanced for neat sipping or on ice
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: 12 years in bourbon and oloroso sherry casks
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals dried figs and orange peel, palate delivers blackberry jam with vanilla and toasted oak, finishing with warm spices of nutmeg and cinnamon
• Best Served: Neat in a Glencairn glass or over a single ice cube

Our team at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store has found this expression particularly versatile for Malaysian palates – the sherry influence and fruit-forward profile complement our local flavor preferences beautifully. The triple distillation smoothness makes it an excellent gateway into premium single malts.

Ideal for: Corporate gifting, whisky beginners, and collectors seeking reliable quality. Pairs with: Rich Malaysian dishes like beef rendang or dark chocolate desserts. Recommended for: Those who enjoy smooth, fruit-driven whiskies – consider pairing with our Deanston Virgin Oak for comparative tastings.
