Aberlour 10 Year Old Forest Reserve 70cl Whisky
Customer Rating
“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 ”

Description
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.

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