Aberlour A'Bunadh Alba Single Malt Whisky
Aberlour A’Bunadh Alba is a cask-strength Speyside single malt matured exclusively in American oak ex-bourbon barrels, offering a sweet, creamy profile with vibrant fruit and vanilla notes. Unlike its sherry-matured sibling A’Bunadh, Alba (named after the white oak species Quercus Alba) showcases a different side of Aberlour’s character. Bottled at natural cask strength—typically around 58–63% ABV—it is non-chill filtered and naturally coloured, preserving its full texture and intensity. The nose opens with ripe red apples, honey, vanilla and a hint of cinnamon, creating a warm and inviting aroma. On the palate, it delivers citrusy brightness, baked apples and a touch of almonds, with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel that balances its strength. The finish is sweet and lingering, with traces of toasted almonds and soft spice that fade gently. A’Bunadh Alba is ideal for those who enjoy bourbon-cask matured whiskies with bold flavour and natural strength. It’s best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to unlock its layered complexity.
Aberlour A'Bunadh Single Malt Whisky
Aberlour A’Bunadh is a cask-strength Speyside single malt whisky matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry butts, known for its rich, intense flavour and bold character. The name A’Bunadh means “the original” in Scots Gaelic, and the whisky is crafted as a tribute to Aberlour’s founder, James Fleming. Each batch is handmade and bottled at natural cask strength, typically ranging between 59% and 61% ABV, with no chill filtration and natural colour, preserving its full-bodied texture and depth. The nose is deep and spicy, with aromas of praline, spiced orange, candied zest and golden raisins, alongside hints of nutmeg, cinnamon and walnut. On the palate, it delivers a powerful burst of black cherries, ginger, dark chocolate and cooked stone fruits, balanced by bittersweet marmalade and sweet spice. The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of oak, orange and cinnamon, showcasing the whisky’s sherried richness. Each batch of A’Bunadh varies slightly in flavour and strength, making it a favourite among collectors and connoisseurs who appreciate its evolving profile. It’s best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to unlock its complexity.
