I don’t think no.12 is actually 12 years old. Could be wrong though.


Or, you could be right. They are upfront about this during the distillery tour.

quote:

According to a Dickel spokesperson, “The numbers behind No. 8 + No. 12 are an unsolved mystery, as they do not relate to the number of years the whisky is aged.”

Aged for 5 to 7 years, George Dickel Classic No. 8 Whisky balances flavors of vanilla and caramel to create the distillery’s signature whisky. In 2010, it won a gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

Aged for 6 to 8 years, George Dickel Superior No. 12 blends older whiskies to create what the company describes as “deeper, more assertive flavors and an incredibly smooth finish.” This spirit has won 17 prestigious awards since 2002, including gold and double gold medals from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the Beverage Tasting Institute.

The unaged George Dickel No. 1 contains the same mash bill as No. 8 and No. 12 but spends no time in the barrel and is thus sold clear.
