Tasting Notes

Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Hazelburn 12

Country: Scotland

Region: Campbeltown

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 46%

Score: 89 Points

This is Springbank’s unpeated, triple-distilled single malt that comes as a change of pace to the distillery’s more traditional Campbeltown malts. The nose is aromatic and slightly briny, light, clean, and malty with a nice oakiness and touches of roasted almonds, figs, and raisins. The taste is chewy and spicy with orange, cinnamon, dark chocolate, caramel candy, and hints of figs and raisins. The finish is long and spicy with lingering cinnamon and a hint of briny wet sand. (January, 2013)
