Aberlour 10 Years Forest Reserve

Here we have Aberlour Forest Reserve, a 10 Year Old single malt from Aberlour distillery! It spent most of its ageing in bourbon barrels and sherry casks from Jerez, before it was treated to a finish in French Limousin oak casks. It’s called Forest Reserve as a nod to the commitment of the distillery to conserving the forest in the Speyside region, where the distillery resides. Aberlour 10 Year Forest Reserve Tasting Notes Nose: Fresh oak, with lemon blossom, orange peel and strawberry jam, with a scattering of vanilla pod. Palate: Cantaloupe leads into toffee sweetness, praline and plump raisin, with vanilla oak and dried herbs. Finish: Candied ginger and black pepper, with oat and raisin cookies.
