Description
The Aberlour 18 Year Old is a prestigious Speyside Single Malt, born from the renowned Aberlour Distillery established in 1879. This expression is meticulously aged for 18 years in a double cask regimen, using a thoughtful combination of traditional American oak ex-Bourbon barrels and premium European Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry butts. This dual maturation process builds an exceptionally rich and sophisticated flavour profile, moving far beyond the expected. Bottled at a welcoming 43% ABV in a standard 750ML size, it presents a perfect balance of intensity and smoothness. We recommend enjoying this exemplary dram neat or with a splash of water to fully appreciate its full-bodied depth.
