Aberlour
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Aberlour is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky distillery founded in 1879 in Charlestown of Aberlour, on the banks of the Lour Burn in the Scottish Highlands. The distillery is known for its commitment to sherry cask maturation, producing spirit in copper pot stills before aging in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry oak. The Double Cask 12 Year Old marries both cask types, while the 16 Year Old and 18 Year Old expressions extend that maturation further. The single cask 2002 18 Year Old First Fill Sherry Cask 5417 represents the distillery's most focused oak influence. The Abunadh range, including Batch 65, Batch 69, Batch 73, and the Abunadh Alba, delivers non-chill-filtered, cask-strength Speyside malt for those seeking full-proof intensity.
