- Raided Score: 85
- Drinkhacker
- It drinks young — and comes across a bit hot on the finish — but it’s charming in its own way.

- Whiskyfun
- Indeed, a fine, pretty ‘natural’ and very honest malt whisky. Of fair marketable quality, as they used to say.

- All in all, a nice treat to enjoy when you've got a craving for something sweet.

- Ancnoc 12 is in that “it’s not really good, but it’s not really bad either” kind of area.

Nose:
Honey and doughy sweetness. Theres some light sherry style notes: fig, plum and syrupy grapes. Light strawberry. Its like a light, fragrant, fruity arrangement in a small danish pastry. I enjoy it.
-
Taste:
Sweet but thin mouth feel. Theres a lot of sweetness here and its definitely a bit doughy also. Some thin vanilla icing. Summer fruits like grapes, strawberry and a tiny bit of raspberry.
-
Finish:
Its medium to short and a bit hotter than expected for such a low proof dram, but its not too hot or unreasonably so. Very sweet but not cloying. Its light and summery and goes down easy.
-
Overall:
I didn't know what to expect here - this is my first brush with AnCnoc's take on whiskey but it reminded me of a little sweeter Glengoyne. Delicious and light, definitely on the more dessert end of things. I really enjoyed it though and it could easily be a daily, no frills type of dram to me if the price was right. I don't see it much here in the Midwest but I would easily snatch a bottle in the $45-$50 price range. Based on this tasting, there's no question that this dram meets the criteria to merit a 5 rating. It's solid, delicious and I don't see any real flaws with it.
