Description

Taste and Flavor Profile

Aberlour 12 Year Old Scotch Whisky is a remarkable expression of Highland craftsmanship. This single malt is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and sherry casks, which imparts a rich and multifaceted flavor profile. On the palate, it reveals a harmonious blend of dried fruits, particularly raisins and sultanas, mingled with a touch of honeyed sweetness. The whisky is distinguished by layers of malted barley and subtle spices, including cinnamon and nutmeg, that add depth and complexity. The slight oakiness from the aging process complements these flavors, making each sip a balanced and delightful experience.

Aroma & Bouquet

The bouquet of Aberlour 12 Year Old is inviting and layered. It opens with enticing notes of vanilla and toasted almonds, followed by a more profound aroma of sherry-soaked fruits. A gentle hint of dark chocolate and a whisper of oak create an intricate aromatic profile that evolves as the whisky breathes. This rich and diverse aroma prepares the palate for the sophisticated flavors to come and showcases the quality of the whisky’s aging process.

Smooth & Finish

Aberlour 12 Year Old is celebrated for its smooth and well-rounded finish. The whisky offers a velvety mouthfeel that glides effortlessly over the palate. The finish is medium to long, marked by a lingering warmth and a gentle spiciness that invites another sip. The balance between the sweet, fruity notes and the subtle spiciness ensures a satisfying conclusion to each dram. This smooth finish makes it an excellent choice for both sipping neat and enjoying with a splash of water or ice.

Food Pairing

Aberlour 12 Year Old pairs beautifully with a range of dishes. Its rich, fruity notes complement savory foods such as roasted meats and game. Try it alongside a dish of roast lamb or a hearty beef stew to enhance the depth of flavors. For a more refined pairing, serve it with a selection of artisanal cheeses, particularly those with a creamy texture like Brie or Camembert. The whisky’s subtle sweetness also makes it a perfect match for dark chocolate desserts or a fruit tart, creating a luxurious end to a meal.

Who Is It For?

Aberlour 12 Year Old is ideal for those who appreciate a well-balanced single malt with a rich, complex character. It is particularly suited for whisky enthusiasts who enjoy a touch of sherry influence in their dram. Whether you're a seasoned Scotch drinker or someone new to single malts, this expression offers a versatile and approachable option for various occasions, from casual sipping to more formal gatherings.

Who Is It Not For?

This whisky may not be the best choice for those who prefer lighter, more delicate spirits or for those who are seeking an uncharacteristically bold and peaty Scotch. Its sweetness and sherry notes might not appeal to individuals who favor a more traditional, heavily peated whisky. Additionally, those who dislike the influence of sherry casks might find Aberlour 12 Year Old too rich in its fruity and sweet undertones.
