Out of stock
The quintessence of the Black Bull range. The 12 Year Old weighs in at a punchy 50% abv – a real contender for the prize list. This blend is a marriage of Malt and Grain that has undergone a 12-year maturation in refill ex-bourbon American oak hogsheads and finished in ex-Oloroso European butts. This nurtured and cultivated Highlander demonstrates a nutty sherry influence with the Black Bull chocolate so brace yourself for a full-on flavour experience that will rampage all over your senses.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep copper-amber with rich mahogany hues, a glossy bronze that glows amber in bright light.
Nose
Opulent and nutty with oloroso sherry overtones: toasted almond and walnut meet dark chocolate, caramel and toffee. Dried fig and raisin ride through orange zest, while vanilla from the bourbon cask influence threads a gentle spice. A polished oak backdrop gives depth, yielding a rich, inviting aroma that promises a full-bodied, chocolate-kissed palate.
Palate
Full-bodied and velvety, the palate opens with nutty sweetness—almond, hazelnut and a touch of pecan—torrefied by warm oak spice. Ex-Oloroso sherry adds fig and raisin, balanced by dark chocolate and creamy barley. At 50% ABV the texture stays lush, finishing long with cocoa, spice and a warming, lingering glow.
Finish
A long, indulgent finish where nutty sherry folds into dark chocolate and cocoa, with warm oak spice lingering. Dried fruit notes echo softly as the 50% ABV cushions the burn, leaving a refined, lasting warmth.
