Tasting Notes

Nose: Bright bursts of green apple, pear drops and blossom honey drift over vanilla pod, coconut shavings and a hint of citrus zest. Palate: A creamy surge of toffee fudge, baked banana and sweet malt glides across the tongue, backed by cinnamon bark, white-pepper warmth and a refreshing dash of lemon sherbet. Finish: Medium-long and mouth-coating—lingering vanilla cream, light oak tannin and a final flourish of spiced shortbread.
Experience the bright Highland character of Glen Ord 12 Year Old – 2012 Vintage, Signatory 100-Proof Edition #43. Distilled on the Black Isle and matured its full term in first-fill bourbon barrels, this small-batch release was bottled in 2025 at the label’s signature 100 Proof (57.1 % ABV). The fresh American oak amplifies Glen Ord’s clean, malty core with layers of creamy vanilla, orchard fruit and lively oak spice. Un-chill-filtered and natural in colour, Edition #43 offers a vivid, full-bodied snapshot of Glen Ord’s modern style—crisp, sweet and gently spicy.

Why We Think You’ll Love It:

  • Fully matured in 1st-fill bourbon barrels, layering Glen Ord’s crisp malt with rich vanilla, coconut and gentle spice.

  • Bottled at the classic 100 Proof (57.1 % ABV) for maximum flavour impact, texture and warmth.

  • 12 years of ageing strike an ideal balance between youthful vibrancy and bourbon-cask depth.

  • Part of Signatory’s 100-Proof Edition series—non-chill-filtered, natural colour and released in limited quantities for collectors and bourbon-cask aficionados.

Enjoy this spirited Glen Ord for its lively orchard fruit, creamy vanilla richness and the bold presence only 100 Proof can deliver—an invigorating Highland dram from first sip to lingering finish.
