Aberlour 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky with Giftbox, 70cl

Product Information

But I'll level with you; every time I open a bottle of Aberlour 12 and, without guilt, pour out a large glass, it makes me wonder why I ever bother with anything more expensive?

The nose and taste are characterized by baked cherry pie with the buttery pie crust sensations of NCF whisky, plums, vanilla spice, strawberry, caramel apples, some almonds (more on the palate than the nose), nutmeg, and fig newtons. Aromas of raisins, butterscotch and sweet spices fill the nose, and the palate offers notes of dark chocolate, orange peel, banana, raisins and caramel.

Compared with the other two: the 8yo 50° wine of 70s is much more solid, and there is a certain gap between the two.

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. The spirit was created in the 19th century by James Fleming who was keen to let his whisky do the talking and remain true to his family motto, ‘let the deed show’.

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. The 12-year-old is ‘double cask matured’ in this manner and Oloroso sherry is prominent on the sweet nose, along with honey, almonds and wood. I enjoy this very much lean together with some chili nuts as they add character and edge to the overall experience. d) the right to license, use, sell, archive, reproduce, distribute, modify, perform, publish, create derivative works from, offer for sale, or use of the Service.Neither Whiskybase nor any of its group companies (including any subsidiary, affiliate or holding company), directors, officers and employees shall in any way be liable or responsible (whether directly, indirectly, consequential) for any costs, claims, damages, liabilities and other expenses, including any consequential loss, suffered by you resulting from your use of the Service.

Having just got stuck into my first bottle of the 12yr NCF , I find myself utterly confused, and even a little annoyed with Aberlour. I think Aberlour 12 NCF is as good or better than four of the five batches of A’Bunadh that I have tried. Sherried characters and fruity aromas on the palate that are balanced with a rich chocolate, toffee, cinnamon and ginger spiciness. It is this depth of experience and unwavering vision that delivers the outstanding quality for which Aberlour is famed.
