Aberlour Whisky

Much is often made of the Auld Alliance between France and Scotland, and Aberlour has long enjoyed a particularly strong following in the French market. That popularity is no small achievement in one of the world's most important export markets for Scotch single malt. Today Aberlour is positioned by its owners as one of the top ten single malt Scotch whiskies worldwide, a standing that reflects both its wide appeal and the consistency of its house style.

Aberlour is particularly well known for the role that sherry casks play in its whisky-making, though American oak casks also form an important part of the distillery's character through its double-cask approach. The range includes accessible, easy-drinking expressions such as the 12 Year Old Double Cask Matured, while A'Bunadh remains one of the distillery's best-known releases: a rich, full-bodied cask-strength whisky closely associated with sherry cask maturation.

Alongside its core range, Aberlour continues to draw the attention of enthusiasts through limited releases and independent bottlings, which often reveal a more individual side of the distillery's spirit. What unites the finest examples is a style that combines richness and spice with the soft, rounded fruitiness for which Speyside is so celebrated.
