Aberlour 12 Year Old Single Malt
This exceptional Speyside single malt Scotch whisky, the Aberlour 12 Year Old, is a testament to the distillery's dedication to craftsmanship. It is matured in a combination of traditional oak and sherry casks, a process that imparts a beautifully balanced and complex flavour profile. Upon nosing, one encounters rich aromas of golden honey, ripe orchard fruits, and a subtle hint of vanilla toffee. The palate reveals a smooth and inviting character, with notes of tangy orange, crisp red apple, and a delicate undercurrent of liquorice and almond. The finish is smooth and sweet, leaving a warm and lingering impression of gentle spice. This whisky is a fine example of how the crisp, citrus character of new distillate is harmoniously softened by double cask maturation. It presents a delightful balance of fruit, spice, and sweetness, making it a versatile dram that can be enjoyed by both novice and seasoned whisky enthusiasts.
Meikle Toir The Original Single Malt Whisky
The Original Meikle Toir is the single malt from the range that truly champions this new peated pursuit by GlenAllachie Distillery. This single malt has been produced with an extended fermentation of 160 hours, nearly triple the time of the industry average which has produced a whisky that can boast big, rich and complex characters. Aromas of baking spices, burn honey and roasted coffee beans, leading to hazelnuts, smoked almonds and butterscotch. Flavours on sweet peat, rich chocolate and heather honey, followed by cinnamon, ginger and oak smoked sugar.
