Description: Indulge in the rich and harmonious flavors of Aberlour Double Cask Matured 16 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky, a distinguished expression that beautifully marries the distillery's traditional craftsmanship with the innovative use of two distinct cask types. Located in the heart of Speyside, Aberlour Distillery has been crafting exceptional whiskies since 1826, and this 16-year-old release is a shining example of their dedication to quality, depth, and complexity.
Matured initially in traditional oak barrels, this single malt is then transferred to ex-sherry casks for a secondary maturation period, allowing it to absorb the rich and fruity flavors characteristic of Oloroso sherry. The result is a whisky that boasts a deep and inviting amber hue, coupled with a complex and multi-layered flavor profile that tantalizes the senses.
Upon first nosing and tasting, Aberlour Double Cask Matured 16 Year reveals a luxurious array of aromas and flavors. The nose is greeted with notes of ripe fruits, honey, vanilla, and subtle hints of oak, while the palate offers a harmonious blend of dark chocolate, dried fruits, spices, and a touch of nuttiness, all beautifully balanced by the influence of the sherry casks.
The 16 years of maturation have imparted a depth and richness to the whisky, resulting in a long and satisfying finish that lingers delicately on the palate, leaving behind a warm and comforting glow.
