Apogee XII is a 12-year-old blended whisky composed of Highland and Speyside single malts, aged in ex-Bimber single malt ex-bourbon casks. It is bottled at 46.3% ABV and priced around $95. Since it was sourced from Scotland and matured in England, it is not classified as a scotch.
A bit of white pepper and barrel char arrive on the finish, offering contrast to all that sugary fruit and resolving into a lingering, mildly spiced finish of mint and peach candies.
