Aberlour St. Drostan’s Well Single Malt Scotch Whisky 22 Year Old · 1980 Vintage

Colour

Bright golden amber with sunlit honey and copper highlights.

Nose

Bright citrus zest takes the lead, with orange peel and lemon curd weaving through a gently sherried backbone. Vanilla and honeyed barley soften warm oak spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—while whispers of fig and raisin add subtle depth. A clean, citrus-forward Aberlour nose that speaks of freshness and refined sweetness.

Palate

Bright citrus lifts the palate with zesty orange oil and lemon zest, carried on a soft malt sweetness. Subtle sherry-touched fruit and toffee mingle with gentle oak, while spice notes of vanilla and clove add warmth. A crisp, lingering citrus finish leaves a refined, polished impression.

Finish

Long and bright, the finish opens with orange zest and grapefruit peel, backed by soft oak and delicate spice. A whisper of sherry sweetness lingers, gradually fading to a clean, refined warmth that leaves a citrus-kissed, lingering glow.
