ABERLOUR 18 Year Old. The Aberlour distillery produces a new make spirit of exceptional quality with striking depth and a clean, crisp and fruity flavour. Greater age adds body and a rich raisin character to Aberlour’s characteristic depth and spiciness. Matured in the highest quality casks, where it develops deep Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry flavours, this is the richest and most indulgent Aberlour expression. Perfect in structure and memorably eloquent.
Tasting Notes:
Aroma: It is rich and complex with notes of toffee and butterscotch combining with ripe peach and bitter orange.
Palate: It is superbly structured, with initial notes of soft apricot and cream, offset by developing flavours of old leather and oak, with a touch of honey.
Finish: The finish is a long and well balanced progression from crème brulée to a gentle oak flourish.
