- Description
- Adnams' 12-year-old single malt is crafted entirely from East Anglian malted barley and matured in ex-bourbon casks, representing the emerging character of English whisky-making. Butterscotch, banana, and honeyed dried fruit lead the nose, with vanilla and ripe figs developing on the palate alongside light spice notes. The approachable, food-friendly character makes this a solid introduction to English single malt, and its 2025 World Whiskies Award silver medal confirms its quality.
