En ny variant som ersätter den gamla 15-åringen. Min poäng: ?? p

Tasting notes från whiskyfun: Officiella tasting notes:

Aberlour 16yo (43%, OB, Sherry, Double cask Matured, circa 2007)
We quite liked an earlier batch of this one (84). Colour: amber. Nose: more body but it’s globally more mellow, deeply honeyed, floral and fruity (dried fruits). Dandelions, ripe apricots, orange marmalade, maple syrup, candy sugar, pastries, mint... Really luscious, thick and sort of perverse, I’d say. Mouth: the attack is a bit less thick (I was afraid it would be lumpish) but still very honeyed, malty, jammy and toasty. Notes of sweet sherry and quite some fresh and dried fruits (headed by dates, then very ripe bananas, sultanas...) Good oakiness that keeps it ‘structured’. Finish: not really long but nicely honeyed and candied. Very good malt that should please anyone from your mother-in-law to your friend who’s heavily into single malts.
SGP:833 – 85 points. Inga
