Black Bull 12 Year Old (Duncan Taylor) 70cl, 50%

Description

Black Bull 12 Year Old (Duncan Taylor) 70cl, 50% is a rich and robust blended Scotch whisky bottled by Duncan Taylor, created in a fuller-bodied style than many standard blends. It carries a 12-year age statement, is bottled at 50% ABV, and is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-oloroso sherry casks, giving it a profile built around depth, sweetness, fruit, and spice.

One of the key details that sets this whisky apart is its recipe. Duncan Taylor states that Black Bull 12 is blended to a formula of 50% malt whisky and 50% grain whisky, which helps give it a richer texture and more flavour intensity than many lighter blended Scotches. The point about greater flavour intensity is an inference based on the stated composition and bottling strength.

The flavour profile leans confidently toward chocolate, toffee, orchard fruit, vanilla, and gentle spice, with the cask mix bringing both sweetness and structure. This is the kind of bottle that works especially well for customers who want a traditional blend with proper body and a bit more punch than the average 40% bottling. The point about it offering more punch than a typical blend is an inference based on the published ABV, cask types, and tasting notes.

Why Choose Black Bull 12 Year Old (Duncan Taylor)

This is a classic age-stated blended Scotch that stands out through its stronger bottling strength, balanced malt-and-grain recipe, and richer cask influence. It offers the familiarity of a traditional blend while delivering more weight, flavour, and structure than many entry-level alternatives.
