Tasting notes

Rich with Citrus Character 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. Golden amber colour with hints of ruby. Soft and rounded nose with fruity notes of red apple. A fine Sherried character, fruity aromas balanced with rich chocolate on the palate. Warm and lingering finish, Sweet and spicy.
