Aberlour 16 years old Double Cask - Batch 001 - 70cl

TRAVEL RETAIL RANGE. This whisky is a new release from the popular Speyside single malt brand of Aberlour. It forms part of a trio of new whiskies for their travel retail range. Notes: The colour is deep coppery gold and the nose is buttery, sweet and fruity with an underlying spice. Heady aromas of green apple, butterscotch and orange oil lead the way. These are supported by juicy apricot, cocoa powder and vanilla. Underneath sits a distinct warming and woody spiciness. This evolves with time and is reminiscent of cinnamon, mace and hard gingerbread. Some fresh linen also comes through. On the palate this whisky feels luscious and sweet but with a definitive spiciness. This holds throughout and is reminiscent of freshly sawn oak, cinnamon and clove. Caramel and tangy orange zest are followed further notes of soft baked apple with butterscotch sauce. A hint of icing sugar, marzipan and marshamallow also comes through here. The juicy apricot from the nose is also evident and is joined by dried raspberry, dried red apple and some lovely creamed coconut. The woody characteristic really comes through towards the end. The finish is long and warming with the oak characteristics really taking hold. The sweet and fruity elements slowly fade and add a sugary, almost tropical, juiciness. The gingerbread note then leads the way as the cinnamon and clove also come through nicely.
