Overview
Fresh from collecting back-to-back Double Golds at the world’s biggest and most influential spirits competition, the legendary Aberlour showed us why they’ve earned their cult following, with the Australian launch of their latest sherried masterpiece.
From the slow distillation and the hearty, full bodied yet balanced new make spirit, Aberlour is a distillery famous for its patience and being able to nurture their spirit through a mix of predominantly Sherry casks and a smattering of American oak to create that distinct Aberlour flavour profile that has everyone salivating at the mere mention of their name.
Aberlour 14 Year Old Double Cask joined the ranks of their already distinguished line up, alongside the 12, 16, and 18 Year Old age statement releases. And in true Aberlour style, it arrived with a huge bang, taking out a coveted Double Gold with 98 points in the prestigious IWSC (International Wine & Spirit Competition) 2020, alongside liquid treasures like Glenfiddich 40 & Finest Solera, Balvenie 30 and Bunnahabhain 25 Year Old. That win was backed up with the extremely rare feat of a successive 98 point Double Gold in the IWSC 2021, proof that Aberlour 14 Year Old Double Cask really does deserve its place on the top shelf.
Master Distiller Graeme Cruickshank said “We are proud of the meticulous attention to detail and teamwork that has gone into the creation of Aberlour 14 Year Old. It’s a true celebration and manifestation of the art of distilling, which we are extremely passionate about.
Matured in the very best Oloroso Sherry and American oak casks, this expertly balanced whisky is Aberlour perfection through and through: a quintessential feast of decadent rich butterscotch, cherry and blackcurrant layered on waves of creamy caramel, finishing with mouth-wateringly divine vanilla and custard tart.
