Alness 12 y.o. Blended Malt Scotch Whisky - Thompson Bros.

Special features: The Alness 12 Year Blended Malt Scotch Whisky from Thompson Bros. combines the strength of the Highlands with a distinctive character that reflects the influences of the heavily peated Dalmore and the elegant Teaninich idea. This whisky, bottled at cask strength of 50% ABV, is not chill-filtered and contains no artificial colorings. The enjoyment is characterized by its long-lasting aromas, which encompass both smoky and fruity notes. With a volume of 700 ml and no special packaging ratio, the whisky presents itself in its pure form.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The aroma is an eccentric pleasure, opening with a nostalgic hint of foam bananas and sharp mandarin peel. Zesty lemon notes and the salty taste of capers in brine provide a striking delicious edge, softened by fresh green herbs - particularly torn parsley.
• Palate: The entry is creamy and surprisingly cooling, led by vanilla yogurt and a gentle, medicinal hint of iodine. The smoke is zesty and fresh, quickly moving into the warmth of oak spice and polished sandalwood.
• Finish: The finish is long and impeccably balanced. It retains a lovely acidity while ending on a lingering trace of gentle wood spices and the comforting sweetness of high-quality roasted oak.

Distillery/Bottler: Thompson Bros. is an independent bottler and producer of whisky and gin based in Dornoch, Scotland. The Dornoch Distillery is operated by them, while the Struie Distillery is in planning. Their approach combines tradition with innovative techniques to create characterful spirits that offer both smoky and fruity nuances.
