ABERLOUR 2008 AGED 15 Years ARTIST #14 Rothes Glen

$580.00

Founded in 1879 by James Fleming, the Aberlour distillery closed its malting floors in 1962. Doubling its production capacity in 1973, it was acquired in 1974 by the Pernod Ricard company.

In 2022, the latter announced an expansion project including the installation of sixteen washbacks, two wash stills, and two spirit stills. Superb in its classicism, this version aged in oloroso sherry casks brilliantly embodies the “Aberlour” style.

A very subtle blend of freshness and maturity, its aromatic and taste profile evolves through sequences that are abundantly fruity, divinely floral, and preciously woody, with a depth matched only by its well-rounded character.

Description

Tasting Notes


Colour
: Deep orange copper.

Nose : Rich, heady. Aromas of incense, dark chocolate, blood orange, mango, dried apricot, caraway, candied ginger, clove, hyacinth, lily geranium, tarte tatin, raisin cake, and walnut cake create an aromatic palette of remarkable complexity.

Palate : Ample, full-bodied. Particularly silky, the taste profile starts by revealing flavors of candied citrus (orange, lemon), Vosges candies, crème brûlée, and strawberry jam, all with a rare evocative power. Over time, it takes on more exotic tones (mango, persimmon, guava).

Finish : Long, concentrated. Now, flavors of liquorice, pipe tobacco, blackberry jam, and more tertiary notes (dried leaves, mushrooms, lichen) bring splendid autumnal nuances to the taste profile. Finally, butter caramel and a delicious mango coulis gradually envelop the taste buds.
