Glenkinchie was founded by brothers John and George Rate in 1837, from one of the last surviving Lowland distilleries in Scotland, situated twenty miles outside Edinburgh. Glenkinchie 12 Year Old is distilled in some of the largest stills in Scotland to make a light, crisp whisky and is named after the Kinchie Burn, a nearby water source.
Glenkinchie is perfect as an aperitif Single Malt or at the start of a meal due to its fragrant, light and appetising body and taste. The letters GK in gold emphasise the malt's good provenance and high stature.

Palate: Sweet, soft start becoming flowery. Crisp mid-palate then butter icing, lemon cheesecake and freesias.
Finish: Herbal and drying, a little like pot-pourri.
