BenRiach The Smoky Twelve 12 years Single Speyside Malt Whisky 70 cl 46%

"The Smoky Twelve is the perfect marriage of fruit, malt, oak and layers of smoke. The whisky is unconventionally matured in three cask types consisting of Bourbon casks, Sherry casks and Marsala casks. This combination has given the whisky an almost creamy and soft structure with many layers of ripe fruit aromas, a very aromatic smoky sweetness and lovely warming oak spices.

The color shines like polished gold

.

The nose has strong smoky notes with vanilla, roasted orange peel and toasted almonds. On the palate, notes of dark chocolate, fruit, brown sugar, smoke and cocoa emerge.

The

finish is persistent with a good full-bodied smoke flavor.

Quietness can be an asset.
Those who stand in the shadows
are the silent witnesses,
messengers ready to do their bidding.

Much has been seen and any sweetness
which has been gathered in,
will be balanced by the darker acts of war,
plotted under paraffin light.
There is spice in the tales told.

The rough hemp of the tunic
stiffened with clotted blood,
the wearied walk through the
thickened glaur of autumn woods,
surviving on a diet of acorns
and stewed tea.

A solid and trustworthy messenger,
a worker, a warrior. Not for him
the comfort of the palace; his is a life
willingly given to service.

Pallid, with a reek of woodsmoke
and tallow candles.
Salt sweat on the brow.
Lean shanked, yet muscular.

Downtrodden, dismissed and angry;
a denizen of the darkest taverns.
For a few coins, as night falls,
a throat will feel its bite, a child will die;
money runs thicker than blood.

There, on the little promontory,
a peat fire smoulders

swirling in the cauldron.

the draw of a world
of smoke and tar, fish livers,
and enveloping violet night.

A gentleness of manner and vulnerability
is what you find on first acquaintance,
at home among spring orchards and drifts

a firmness of resolve, a steel at the heart.
The tongue may seem sweet,
but can also be cutting.
Do not be deceived.

aside and darkness embraced.
The muscles flex anew, power grows.
