One of the core expressions for this classic distillery, the 12 year old delivers an outstanding performance year after year. Wonderful balance of the whisky pillars of peat, smoke and wood. A great "go to" dram that would be a value even at a much higher price.

SUGGESTED CHOCOLATE PAIRING
Candela is the one for those of you who love peat. Its chipotle spice brings out the subtle smoke of this Islay jem. Click here to purchase.
SUGGESTED CIGAR PAIRING
This match pits a young whisky against a classic cigar and you come out the winner. The sweet citrus and vanilla flavors, and the subtle smokiness of the malt are accented by the pepper and spices of the cigar. Let the long finish of the whisky fade slightly before puffing to get the most enjoyment out of the pairing. Click here to purchase.
