Tasting Notes

Nose

Rich and sweet — tangy orange, glazed cherries, raisins, hint of ginger — sherry depth obvious

Palate

Apple and cinnamon crumble, ripe peaches balanced by spicy liquorice and clove — the triple cask creating layers

Finish

Long, rich and warming — lingering sherry spice — Aberlour at full strength

Expert Review

8/10

Name means 'rare cask' in Gaelic. Small-batch Speyside matured in three cask styles — Spanish oak Oloroso sherry butts (lead role), American oak ex-sherry, and American oak ex-bourbon. Released in batches; non-chill filtered. 48%. A serious step up from the 12 — Aberlour's sherry DNA cranked up at a sensible price.
