Released in 2022, this Scotch is a blend of whiskies aged at least 12 years. The whiskies mature separately in ex-bourbon and sherry casks before being bottled at 80 proof. The extra age and the addition of sherry casks result in a full-bodied and complex expression that retains the signature mellow character of the original.

The Story

About Cutty Sark 12 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky

Cutty Sark Blended Scotch was named after a historic British clipper ship. In 2022 they released a 12-year-old version of their iconic blended whisky, paying tribute to the rich history and countless anchor points of the equally legendary ship. Crafted by Master Blender Stephen Woodcock, the whiskies mature separately in ex-bourbon and sherry casks. Then, they are blended and married before being bottled at 80 proof. The black bottle and cork seal are a nod to the Prohibition era, when Cutty Sark gained its notoriety. The extra age results in a full-bodied and complex expression that remains mellow with notes of dried and tropical fruits, spice, cloves, ginger, and sea salt.

About Cutty Sark

Built in 1869 with an iron frame and a wooden hull, the Cutty Sark is a British clipper ship that was designed to transport tea from from China to London. At the time of its construction, the tea trade was intensely competitive and substantial bonuses were paid to ships that arrived in London with the first tea of the year. As a result, the Cutty Sark was engineered to be one of the fastest ships in the world, logging a maximum speed of 17.5 knots. The ship's name was derived from the nickname of Nannie Dee, a witch in Robert Burns' poem Tam o'Shaner.

Cutty Sark Scotch Whisky is produced by Edrington of Glasgow, whose main offices are fewer than 10 miles away from the birthplace of the clipper. Cutty Sark Prohibition Edition pays homage to Captain William McCoy, who smuggled Cutty Sark whisky into the United States during Prohibition. His reputation for dealing with unadulterated liquor (at the time, many bootleggers mixed their spirits with other liquids in order to increase yield) gave rise to the Cutty Sark being referred to as "The Real McCoy."

About Scotch

Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)

Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.

Tasting Notes

The whisky opens with complex aromas of fruit, spice, and a touch of sea salt. The palate is balanced with Cutty Sark's signature mellow mouthfeel and notes of dried and tropical fruits, oak, clove, and ginger with a pleasantly long finish.
