Aberlour 12 Years Double Cask

Whisky from Speyside, Scotland

Tasting Note

The 12 year-old expression is a fine example of how the distinctively crisp, citrus character of Aberlour’s new distillate is deftly softened by double cask maturation. Traditional Oak and seasoned Sherry butts are both used to great effect, as the mellowed spirits within are combined to deliver a subtly balanced flavour.

Colour: Golden amber with hints of ruby

Nose: Soft and rounded with fruity notes of red apple

Palate: A fine Sherried character, fruity aromas balanced with rich chocolate

Finish: Warm and lingering. Sweet and spicy

Aberlour

Aberlour Distillery was officially founded in 1826 by James Gordon and Peter Weir, although there is evidence of illicit distillation taking place in the area long before that. The distillery has a rich history of producing high-quality whisky. Aberlour is situated in the heart of Speyside, which is known for its abundance of distilleries and excellent water sources. The distillery draws its water from the Ben Rinnes mountain, contributing to the character of its whisky.

Whisky Style: Aberlour is known for producing a range of rich, fruity, and complex single malt Scotch whiskies. The distillery typically uses a combination of both American oak and European oak casks for maturation, which imparts a diverse range of flavors to their whisky.
