Aultmore Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 9 years 2011
Speyside, The Whisky Cellar, 750 ml
| Producer: | The Whisky Cellar |
| Origin: | United Kingdom / Highland-Speyside |
Description
Founded in 1896 in Speyside, the Aultmore distillery is famous for producing a robust, rich and fragrant whisky. These rather heavy malts are perfect for oloroso sherry maturation, which is why the 9-year maturation took place entirely in this first fill cask. This influence is already noticeable in the nose and presents itself with strong aromas of roasted coffee, sultanas and bourbon biscuits. Wonderfully balanced on the palate with flavours of dark dark chocolate, cinnamon and coconut shavings, this Aultmore ends in a spicy-sweet finish.

Highland-Speyside
Speyside: Das Herz der Whisky-Kultur
Geografisch gesehen ist die Speyside ein kleiner, nordöstlich gelegener Teilbereich der Highlands. Doch das Hügelland zwischen den Städten Inverness und Aberdeen, durch welches das Flüsschen Spy fliesst, das der Region ihren Namen gibt, ist das Herz und der Nabel der schottischen Whisky-Herstellung und Single Malt-Kultur. Nicht weniger als 50 der insgesamt 108 schottischen Destillerien sind hier beheimatet. Die Speyside-Malts bestechen mit ihrer Komplexität und Eleganz.
