Aberlour 12 years old - Double cask

James Fleming founded the Aberlour Distillery in 1879 in the heart of Speyside, a region renowned worldwide for its first-class whiskies. The location, picturesquely situated at the confluence of the Lour Burn and the River Spey and nestled in the impressive landscape of Ben Rinnes, was carefully chosen. The crystal clear, soft spring water, which flows over the pink granite of Ben Rinnes and comes from nearby springs, gives Aberlour whisky its unmistakable character.

Aberlour 12 Years Old Double Cask Matured impressively demonstrates how the characteristic, crisp citrus tone of the fresh Aberlour distillate is elegantly refined through maturation in two different types of cask. Traditional oak casks and matured sherry casks each contribute to the development of a balanced, subtle flavor profile. The two types of cask are only married together shortly before bottling, creating a perfect harmony. (automated translation)
