Aberlour single malts are made with the best local ingredients of barley and soft water from nearby mountain, Ben Rinnes. The expertly crafted new spirit is matured for a minimum of 12 years both in the finest hand-picked Oloroso sherry butts and American oak barrels. It’s the double cask maturation which subtly brings together the characteristics of each cask to create a truly rich and rewardingly complex range of single malts.

The 18 Year Old expression’s deeper sherry influence adds more spiciness and a licorice tang. Greater age adds body and develops the distinctive fruitiness to a rich raisin character. Initial notes of soft apricot and cream are offset by developing flavors of blackcurrant jam and sweet oak with a touch of honey.
