Overview

More Info

Black Bull started life as a 1930s blend, and Duncan Taylor still builds it the old way: a bold fifty-fifty split of malt and grain, bottled at a full 50% ABV cask strength. Twelve years in refill ex-Sherry European oak and ex-Bourbon American oak give it juicy grapefruit and orange up front, then fudge, crystallized orange peel, and a warm nudge of cardamom and pepper. It earned Gold at the 2011 IWSC. Pour it neat, or let a drop of water open it up.
Tasting notes

Color: Full amber.

Nose: Robust, chunky aromas of chocolate, toffee, sherry, vanilla and lemon sherbet.

Taste: Smooth, mellow and rounded. Milk chocolate, treacle toffee, pears, green apples and lots of sweet vanilla.

Finish: Some heavier fruity notes emerge with creamy notes coming through

Reviewers at Tastings.com scored Black Bull 12 a 93/100 and it won Gold at the 2011 IWSC plus Silver in 2013. Critics on Drinkhacker and Whisky Rant praise the 50/50 malt-grain blend at 50% ABV — honey, vanilla, sherry, dark fruits, light peat. Holds up against many 12yo single malts.
