12 years or 18 years?

Your experiences please..
When I listen to my state of the art 2.1  Bose tube amp system, I drink a 12 year old single malt whiskey. The sound is warm and smooth. When I switch to an 18 year old single malt, the sound is smokey and woody.
Your thoughts and recommendations on a warm  and  smooth 18 year old single malt whiskey.
TIA for entertaining my question. Stay Healthy and long live HiFi!

For health reasons, I gave up hard liquor almost 20 yrs ago. However, before that, a glass of whisky was my usual listening companion. It certainly reduced the urge to tweak and increased the urge to relax and listen.

The other option I liked was brandy: cognac, armagnac, or calvados. (My favorite was an aged calvados.)

For mental health reasons I gave up Bose 20 years ago...
Single malts on the other hand are great.  Got some fun ones here:  Brenne, Sheep Dip, Nikka, Balcones and every Glenmorangie I can find just to start the list.
