Aberlour 18 Year Double Cask Matured

Nose: Warm and inviting. Dried fruit notes of raisin and fig, with a golden honeyed sweetness. Light polished oak and soft sherry influence. Palate: Warm with mild spice. Pleasant silky, slightly oily texture. Sherried sweetness balanced by gentle oak and subtle vanilla. Finish: Warm and lingering. Soft dried fruit and oak spice remain nicely without any harsh alcohol burn. Overall: Very enjoyable and well integrated. Elegant rather than bold. Not as explosive as A’Bunadh, but refined and easy to return to.

The best speyside Ive had
