Aberlour 2012 Vintage 100% First Fill Casks
Aberlour has taken the near-perfection of our 99-point vintage Double Cask and treated it to the high ABV, first-fill-cask-only regime their cult A’bunadh whiskies are famous for. And it's already got a gold medal...

Nose Layered aromas of rich blackcurrant jam, juicy apricot, Pink Lady apple, vanilla and poached pear
Palate An incredibly creamy palate of heather honey, milk chocolate, orchard fruits and warming ginger, with a hint of almond
Overview
This is a one-off union of the legendary first-fill only, high ABV-style of the A’bunadh series with the maturity and 99/100pt-winning elegance of the Vintage Double Cask.
At 51% ABV, non-chill filtered and with no colour added, the Aberlour 2012 Vintage 100% First Fill Casks is taking things to the next level, layering rich honey, blackcurrant jam and lingering spices on top of the classic A'bunadh notes of chocolate, ripe apples and warming gingerbread.
Straight off the back of our last exclusive Aberlour which took out a previously unheard-of 99/100 points and was shortlisted as World’s Best Single Malt Scotch, it’s coming to the Club as August’s Whisky of the Month. And the best part is, this never-to-be-repeated release has been created exclusively for Club Members.
You can bet the rest of the world will be jealous with this one – it’s already won Gold at 2025’s San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
This is why you Whisky Club.
