An awesome little find from Aberlour, bottled by yours truly! Distilled in 2009, this single malt matured for nine years in a lovely, mellow old refill butt, allowing Aberlour's vibrant distillate character to shine, where so often it's smothered in sherry. Just 72 bottles join our exclusive Master of Malt collection. 72 bottles isn't a lot. There are a couple of reasons for this. Firstly, this was one seriously leaky cask, it lost a lot of liquid and the ABV dropped significantly during maturation (not a bad thing! Pure Aberlour spirit character + oxygen + time = delightful!). The other reason for such a dramatic loss of contents might have something to do with warehouse hands, distillery workers, and downright greedy master blenders who visit and sample particular favourite casks in the warehouse a little too often. Quality control and all that... With generous layers of creamy vanilla, stone fruits, and apples balancing warming, woody spice, it's a tasty treat that won't hang around for long! Bottled without added colour or chill filtration.

Bread dough, blueberry muffins, and generous helpings of vanilla, with creamy milk chocolate developing in time.
Vanilla ice cream! Then waves of crème caramel and shortbread before warming notes of ginger, cinnamon, and cooked, spiced apples creep in. Honeyed apricots and almonds nestle among the spices beneath.
Fresh peach, oaken vanilla, hints of green apple, and a touch of grist keep the warming woody spices in check.
