Aberlour Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Old Bottling) (35cl) 10 Year Old
Out of stock
The St. Drostan's Well, found in the grounds of the Aberlour Distillery, marked the source of an exceptionally pure spring. This historic granite stone hints to an ancient past when a druid community occupied the small valley where the Aberlour distillery is found today. Indeed, the name Aberlour comes from the Gaelic translation of 'Mouth of the Chattering Burn'.
This site in Aberlour was the inspiration for James Fleming to build a disilery in 1819. A quiet, unassuming man, James Fleming was a philanthropist in the truest sense of the term and his unobtrusive generosity left a lasting mark on the village of Aberlour. He lived up to his family motto "Let the Deed Show" which appears on the bottle today. The purity of the spring water and richness of the natural environment drew Tounder is reflected in the generosity of this exceptional Speyside whisky.
Aberlour Single Malt achieves a remarkable harmony marrying subtle aromas of spice - cinnamon and nutmeg - with hints of autumn fruits. Aberlour has been recognised at the International Wine and Spirit Competicion and has three times been awarded their prestigious gold medal.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep mahogany-amber with coppery edges and a warm, sunset-gold glow.
Nose
Warm and inviting, this nose unfolds with cinnamon and nutmeg, balanced by ripe autumn fruits—apple and pear—brightened by a gentle sherry influence. Subtle oak and a refined sweetness linger, revealing a poised, harmonious spirit.
Palate
Velvet and refined, it opens with warm spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—paired with ripe autumn fruit, dried raisin and fig. Sherry-influenced sweetness glides into toasted oak, vanilla and a hint of cocoa, delivering a rounded, creamy texture. A long, warming finish lingers with spice and fruit in balance.
Finish
Long and refined, this finish lingers with cinnamon and nutmeg spice that evolves into dried autumn fruits. Sherry-cask richness coats the palate, leaving a warm, oak-kissed sweetness and a quiet, elegant fade.
