This is a new addition to the Aberlour core range. A double cask matured 14 YO.

The Aberlour 14 YO - Batch 0002 has been matured in bourbon barrels first, then Oloroso sherry casks.

Nose: Various ripe berries - rowan berries, cherry and strawberry. Caramel. Orchard fruits. Tomato plant. Green tea and lychee.

Taste: Thin body. Apples. Not all that sweet really. Dry though. A bit oaky - softly astringent and a little bitter. Hmm, a flash of elderflower tonic. White pepper.

Finish: Medium long finish. White pepper. Still a bit dry and bitter. Fizzy ginger. Caramel.

Comment: A bit flat at first, but it does perk up with time.
