Wine Enthusiast
Reviewed December 2009The bouquet is austere and leathery with curious aromas of beeswax, vegetable oil and oaky resin. Palate entry is focused on the resin; midpalate is splendidly multilayered and offers elements of black pepper, dried orange blossom, honeysuckle, dried fruit, sage, fennel and confections. Aftertaste is deep and unabashedly sweet and honeyed. *Superb, Highly Recommended*

Both bourbon and sherry casks were used for aging. Stewed fruits, butterscotch, and soft spices on the nose. Silky palate delivery, with honey, dark chocolate, light sherry, and cloves. Lingering finish, with citrus and allspice. (GS, Summer 2018)
Notes
At age 16, the Aberlour seems to possess maturity that may appeal to a broad spectrum of whisky fans. An aroma as enticing as freshly baked apple pie isn't come by easily in whisky; the blend of "traditional" and sherry casks helps - but the vibrant fruitiness of the Aberlour 16 is a phenomenon that demands to be experienced directly.
