Aberlour Scotch Single Malt 12 Year 2012

Wine Enthusiast 94 points - Amber in the glass, this Scotch has a rich butterscotch aroma, with touches of fresh apple and tropical fruit. Look for dried fruit and Sherry upfront on the palate, with additional notes of vanilla and oak that hang on through the exceedingly long and rounded finish. Though it’s mouthcoating and oily, it’s also roughed up a bit by the high proof, giving it a drying edge on the close..Kara Newman, December/2015 Ultimate Beverage Challenge 91 points - The nose is fruity, with cherries and berry flavored cereal bars. Fluffy in the mouth the smooth texture juxtaposes deep spice, toasted wood and roasted coffee bean flavor. Notes of sweet grain and fresh fruit linger in the background..March/2017
