12 Year Old

About

The Glenlee takes its name from the steel sailing ship *The Glenlee*, built in 1896 by Archibald Sterling & Co. This blended Scotch is a tribute to that maritime heritage. Produced by ACEO Spirits, the 12-year-old expression offers an approachable introduction to blended whisky. On the nose, soft fruit emerges — red berries, vanilla, and malt with a subtle hint of smoked bacon. The palate delivers surprising richness for its modest strength, with tropical fruit notes, vanilla, and gentle spice. The finish is smooth and clean, without harsh edges. A straightforward blend for those seeking fruit-forward character without pretension. The ship's story adds a layer of charm that distinguishes it from generic blends at this price point.
