Aberlour James Eadie Single Oloroso Sherry Cask #367507 Whisky 11 Year Old · 2012 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a burnished mahogany core, a glow of bronze warmth in the glass.

Nose

An opulent nose of dried figs and raisins, melting into orange zest, fig preserves and toffee. Rich sherry sweetness mingles with cocoa, toasted almond and a whisper of leather, all wrapped in warm spice and polished oak. An intoxicating, full-bodied aroma hinting at the finish of first-fill Oloroso.

Palate

Velvety and full-bodied, it coats the palate with dried fruit—raisin, fig, prune—enhanced by orange zest and a touch of nutty almond. Dark chocolate and toffee weave through vanilla oak, while cinnamon and clove add a warming spice. Rich sherry sweetness lingers into a long, warm finish with leather and treacle.

Finish

Opulent, long finish fed by first-fill Oloroso: dark dried fruits, fig and raisin, cocoa nibs, orange zest, and toasted almond. The 59.3% ABV drives a warming surge of spice and oak, leaving a velvety, nutty sweetness that lingers with chocolate, coffee, and a final whisper of leather.
