Aberlour 10yo Forest Bottling Note

Here we have Forest Reserve, a 10 Year Old single malt from Aberlour distillery! It spent most of its ageing in bourbon barrels and sherry casks from Jerez, before it was treated to a finish in French Limousin oak casks. It's called Forest Reserve as a nod to the commitment of the distillery to conserving the forest in the Speyside region, where the distillery resides.

Palate: Cantaloupe leads into toffee sweetness, praline and plump raisin, with vanilla oak and dried herbs.

Finish: Candied ginger and black pepper, with oat and raisin cookies.

Reviews for Aberlour 10 Year Old Forest Reserve

A more tasty variety of the 10 year old Aberlour

Bought on a whim and out of curiosity to taste the difference to the regular 10 year Aberlour. It feels somewhat heightened in most aspects, a little less smooth, and likely to make the regular 10 feel bland in comparison.

I smell and taste vanilla notes together with a woody aroma. The finish adds well balanced spice.

A good buy, I am sure to repeat the experience

A subtle full taste finished off with a generous nod to its Oak heritage.

Stunning! A well balanced melody of fruit rounded off with the gentle touch of oak.

A Forest of Oak

I found the oak taste overpowering, reminding me of some undrinkable yet overpriced Catalan wines. There may have been other nuances but I won't bother listing them as the balance is so out of kilter. I actually thought "forest reserve" might refer to the amount of trees they slung into the mix!
