Aultmore 13 Year Old 2006 Artist Collective 3.0 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

Collective: #3.3

Batch of: 2 Casks

Cask Type: 1st Fill Sherry Butt

The complex first nose is characterised by notes of apricot and quince paste. Allowed to breathe, it becomes vanilla and even fruitier (peach). The sherry’s influence focuses on a beautiful oxidation (brandied cherry). The precise attack reveals flavours of lime blossom, verbena and orange zest. The mid-palate is malty and herbaceous (straw). Exotic fruit (mango, persimmon) and dark chocolate arrive in a grand finale.

The long finish coats the taste buds in a layer of salted butter caramel. Superb notes of leather and forest floor bring lots of style to the very end of the palate
