Tasting note

Nose

The nose reveals a fresh sharpness reminiscent of a basket full of ripe blueberries, subtly intertwined with the delicate scent of blossom. This transitions into the sweet scent of meringue and the refreshing citrus notes of perfectly baked key lime pie. 

Taste

We are pleasantly surprised at the first sip, this is both sweet and slightly dry. The firm alcohol content gives our glass character, but is perfectly balanced. The whisky feels nicely rounded, with a silky texture that caresses the taste buds.

Finish

The finish is wonderfully long, allowing you to linger on the rich and complex flavours that slowly fade away.

Aultmore Distillery

Aultmore Distillery is located in the Speyside region, near the town of Keith in Banffshire. Founded in 1896 by Alexander Edward, Aultmore has a rich history and is known for its high-quality single malt whiskies. The distillery is set amid the lush, green landscape of Speyside, which contributes to the purity of their production process.

A unique feature of Aultmore is the use of water from the nearby Auchinderran Burn, which makes for a pure and light spirit. Aultmore whiskies are known for their fresh and delicate flavour profiles, with notes of grass, flowers, honey, and subtle hints of herbs and citrus. The distillery uses traditional copper pot stills and long fermentation times, contributing to the whisky's complexity and depth.

Aultmore matures its whiskies mainly in ex-bourbon casks, which ensures a balanced and refined flavour. Although for a long time Aultmore was mainly used for blends, in recent years the distillery has gained more attention for its excellent single malts. The combination of an idyllic location, traditional techniques and high-quality production makes Aultmore a respected name in the world of Scotch single malt whisky.
