Aberlour 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky

Tasting Notes by Billy A

• NOSE

  Buttery cinnamon toast, concentrated raisin in the background, astringent woody touches, glacé cherry, barrel char.

• PALATE

  Big sweet butter hit, with maple syrup, brown sugar, plump raisins, nutmeg, milk chocolate and more of the char from the nose.

• FINISH

  Medium length, with chocolate, raisins and more char.

• COMMENT

  A sweet dram with good levels of sherry spice and richness, although not overly heavy. There is a touch of welcome bitter char that reigns the dram in before it can become too sweet, providing excellent balance.

• ABV-40% ALc
