About Aberlour A''bunadh Use Code 4046
Aberlour A'bunadh (use code 4046 for best pricing) is a cult-favorite cask-strength single malt Scotch whisky from Aberlour distillery in Speyside, bottled at a potent 61% ABV (122 proof) by Pernod Ricard USA. Matured exclusively in first-fill Oloroso sherry butts, non-chill filtered, and released in unique batches, it delivers an intense, creamy profile with rich raisin, sherry, and spice notes that set it apart from milder Speyside malts. What makes it special is its homage to founder James Fleming using traditional methods, resulting in a heavier, memorably flavorful dram that varies slightly by batch, appealing to connoisseurs seeking bold, unadulterated power over everyday sippers. Ideal for sherry bomb enthusiasts and those who enjoy adding water to unlock fruitier layers, it stands out in the cask-strength category for its consistency across batches while offering batch-specific adventures, outperforming many modern sherry-matured malts in depth and mouthfeel at $89.96 for 750ml.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Deep sherry-laden aromas dominate with allspice, praline, spiced orange, and harmonious Oloroso notes, alongside cherries, clover, cinnamon, oak, and citrus. Fruitier aspects emerge like red berries, sultanas, marmalade, and vanilla milk chocolate in recent batches. Bold profiles include prunes, tart cherries, and gingerbread.
👅 Palate
Superlatively full-bodied and creamy, bursting with orange, black cherries, dried fruits, ginger, dark bitter chocolate, and lingering sherry oak. Sherry bomb intensity brings raisins, red grapes, candied pear, oak spice, and a warm, heavy mouthfeel that opens to apple, fennel, and fig with water. Dark fruits, cranberry, prunes, and burnt orange add robust layers across batches.
✨ Finish
Robust and long-lasting with bittersweet exotic spices, dark chocolate, and oak. Recent batches show spicy oak, raw barley, cocoa, and a rough tannic edge, while earlier ones linger on tart dark fruits and chocolate-covered raisins.
