Details  A cask strength edition in Aberlour's A'Bunadh range, Alba refers to Quercus Alba, the variety of American white oak used to make the ex-bourbon barrels that this whisky was exclusively matured in. Aromas of peaches and cream, tropical fruits, sweet malt and vanilla fill the nose, complemented by notes of apple and cinnamon pie, tropical fruits, creme Anglaise, autumn leaves and elegant flowers throughout the palate.

Tasting notes (From Whisky Notes)

Nose: quite typical with lots of American oak markers. Vanilla, peaches and honey, with aromatic marzipan and a good deal of banana dessert. Hints of hay. Some nutmeg. Mostly white fruits but a hint of exotic fruits too, like papaya. Overall it’s quite sweet, and less obviously woody or grassy than I anticipated.

Mouth: sweet and creamy again, although the ferocious strength leaves a burning footprint. It does become grassy now, with some ginger, green apple peelings and a woody astringency. Then plenty of lemon zest, as well as nougat, coconut and hints of white pepper. Water makes the peaches and vanilla come out again.

Finish: long and peppery, with hints of mint and sweet lemons. Still zesty and woody.
