Douglas of Drumlanrig Aberlour Tasting Notes

Posted: April 16, 2012 in Aberlour, Scotch Whisky A-G

Douglas of Drumlanrig Aberlour 1999 (12 year old) 46%

Bourbon/ Code: LD7643/ Dist: Nov 1999 Btl: Nov 2011

Aromas of high toned white fruit, apple and cinnamon. Quite appealing, lightly honeyed with a slight sugariness along with hints of creamy oak.

The palate is soft and a touch spirity. Plenty of herbal notes abound with some latent honey, banana and a touch of grass. Slightly gristy and sweet on the middle. The oak really grips and bitters out the finish, adding a smidge of white chocolate.
