Aberlour 16YO Double Cask

Matured in two types of casks, the traditional oak and sherry oak casks and bottled at a slightly lower abv of 40% than previous editions, this Aberlour 16 Year Old Scotch Whisky Double Cask 700ml is bursting with lush plum, raisin and even floral notes. A cracking Speyside malt. With the depth and complexity that comes from being matured for 16 years in a combination of American Oak casks and the finest Sherry butts, this expression’s warm and fruity notes are enriched by an engagingly spicy sweetness.

True to this legacy and heritage, young James Fleming, a farmer’s son who supplied grain to local distilleries had a dream to build a perfect distillery in the 19th century. A daring modernist as he was, he did not let anything differ from his expectations. And his dream of the perfect dram lives to this day, in the Aberlour Distillery .
