Aberlour 6 Year Old Oloroso Cask Finish (Darkness)
This six-year-old single malt from Aberlour joins the Darkness collection, meaning you can expect plenty of sherry cask goodness here. This one finished its time maturing in an oloroso sherry octave. The small size of the cask ensures greater interaction between the whisky and the wood, and this single malt is brimming with notes of burnt sugar and cream, sweet spice, and candied nuts.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Burnt brown sugar, toasted marzipan, and blanched almonds, with a touch of mocha beneath.
Palate
Rich, dark caramel, crème brulée, and robust, roasty malt build toward hearty baking spice and sticky flapjack.
Finish
That burnt sugar from the nose carries all the way through, joined by sweet, dense spice and fruity oatmeal cookies.
