18 year old single malt from Aberlour up in Speyside. A well-matured, heavily sherried expression, the perfect thing for a late evening dram.
Creamy, like melted vanilla ice-cream. Fruity and honeyed.
Fresh juicy apples and oranges before sherry kicks in with supple sultanas and vanilla.
Intricate with chocolate raisins and oily caramel notes.
The half star reviews bellow are unfair. It is true the prices went up but that does not warrant a half star review. Aberlour 18 is a solid 89 points in my books. Nose: Orange, sherry notes, cocoa, oak. Palate: Orange, ripe fruit, honey, spice, oak, tea. Finish: Short to medium. Smooth.
Nose: Constrained and controlled entrance odour. Carpeted, mild scented sherry. Palate: There is a slate sourced serving undercurrent. Chalk. After: Orange sponge carries you out, but barely.
This is decent whisky, but no more than that. Add to that the high price and for the outrageous bottle sizing and there's no way I can recommend it against a host of far better value alternatives.
Not many years ago, this Aberlour was one of the cheapest 18yo bottlings on the market. Look at it now; well over a ton AND only 50cl! I can only imagine a previously very good whisky has become an astronomically good one. Aberlour: you reap what you sew.
Aberlour 18 is an outstanding whisky. I have lived in Scotland all my life and it is considered to be one of the best in Speyside.
