Description
Black Bull 12 year old, charges at you and shakes you up a bit, but then leaves you with a realisation that this is what blended Scotch whisky should actually be like, a bit of rough and tumble with a silky smooth ending.
Tasting Notes
Colour
Old Amber.
Nose
Robust, chunky aromas of sherry, red fruits, cherries and toffee with a suggestion of vanilla and lemon sherbert.
Palate
Creamy chocolate, fruit and honey with apple and an expressive nuttiness.
Finish
Buttery toffee, long lasting, coordinated, silky.
Comment:
A whisky that comes at you at full charge initially, and then gradually soothes you with its bountiful palate and smooth finish.
