About this deal

Marrying, finish gibi farklı viski terimlerinin anlamları için “Viski Terimler Sözlüğü”ne göz atabilirsiniz. Aberlour 16 Double Cask (İskoç Single Malt, 43% abv) Taste: Sweet and smooth. A nice sweet syrup fills the palate. The taste of apples comes out with a trailing cinnamon after taste.

Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. Finish: Lovely. Cherry, vanilla, accompanied again by smoke and oak. That sherry leaves a nice impression.This kind of reverses on the palate - the toffee takes centre stage with the fruit hiding behind it. Very soft and smooth. Does anyone remember Toffo sweets? Toffees with different fruit flavours, (not seen them for years). Well this whisky reminds me exactly of them - particularly the apple flavoured ones. Bruichladdich is known for releasing some intensely smoky whisky, a signature flavor profile of the Islay region of Scotland. This includes the Port Charlotte and annual Octomore releases, which at times reaches some of the highest levels of peat in any whisky out there. But the core bottling is actually this lovely unpeated whisky.

In general I don't know what I think of Aberlour. The 10yo was far too sweet for my liking. A'bunadh is much better but generally I don't go for lighter sweeter style malt. Having said that, I do like variety and experiencing the full range of whiskies available. I got this bottle as a gift from a colleague that came in late the day after a personnel party at which she let her hair down a bit too heavily. It was her way of apologizing and I gladly accepted. In all seriousness, this is double cask matured, what means that the whisky matured for 16 years on bourbon- and sherry casks. The label says traditional oak and sherry oak. After maturation they were brought together in the marrying tun before being bottled at drinking strength. I got this bottle for Christmas from my wife and it has since established itself as my favourite Speyside malt, and one of my favourite Scotches overall. Many scotch distilleries finish their whiskies in port pipes—huge wooden vessels that previously held port, and named for the Portuguese word "pipa," or cask—which provides a different way to enhance the flavor of a whisky. The Dalmore’s already intensely fruity and complex single malt offers striking notes of ripe plum, cherry and dried apricot in the Port Wood Reserve expression. This non-age statement whisky is initially aged in bourbon barrels before being finished in Tawny Port pipes from W & J Graham's winery in Portugal—exemplifying why port wood is a preferred cask finish.

But love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs, and I am but a rogue and peasant slave. Yea, distracted was I by my love’s fair sibling of a fortnight and two, for from fairest creatures we desire increase. A spiced, rich 16 year old Speyside single malt, 'double matured' in both ex-bourbon and sherry casks. A great Aberlour. No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service. Nose: Earthy, oily, nutty, with traces of bitter chocolate, sherry, and malt. Floral scents come and go. It’s a rather static nose, in that it doesn’t seem to develop much as it sits, but it’s pleasant and fairly robust.

Evlendirme (Marrying): Farklı fıçılarda olgunlaşmış viskilerin belli süreliğine bir fıçıya veya tanka alınması işlemi. Bu işlem ile tatların birbirlerine karışması amaçlanır. The best overall single malt scotch, in a very competitive field, is Aberlour 16. This whisky combines the best flavors of bourbon and sherry cask maturation and provides the best complexity of flavor and palate for its price range. Sounds like quite a roller coaster. I must admit, I want to try this now. I love the A'bunadh, as any self-respecting sherry lover should, but it seems this release paints a different picture from the same artist. On the palate too, it is very creamy, almost syrupy. Dried fruit and nuts, flambéed banana again, Grand Marnier, dried figs and dades, honey, caramelized apple. Hints of citrus. And suddenly the spices emerge: cinnamon, ginger, pepper, saffron, vanilla. Very accessible and sweet. Damak :İlk yudumla beraber dolgun ve kremamsı dokusu hissediliyor. Kuru üzüm, incir, karamel, bal, tarçın ve meşe öne çıkan aromalar. Kadehin biraz havalanmasıyla meşe, bal ve baharat tatları belirginleşiyor. Oldukça tatlı ve yumuşak içimli.The Glenlivet’s 12-year-old expression is extremely popular, and for good reason. It’s priced affordably and has a really approachable palate, according to Chris Dempsey, bartender at Xaman in Dallas. “It’s not too peaty, and it’s really the best everyday drinking whisky for a great price,” he says. Palate: The sherry and oak are in good harmony. The toasty bourbon notes are harnessed well, the vanilla spices are nicely ingrained in the barley. Finish: beautifully consistent with the flavour development. Leaves pleasant wood and grape flavours that linger for a good length. Burun : Kuru üzüm, incir, vanilya, karamel, bal ve akçaağaç şurubu gibi tatlı aromalara tarçın, meşe, hafif malt ve bitter kokuları eşlik ediyor. Yumuşak ve dengeli. Sexy nose! Loads of maple syrup, buttercups, milkchocolate with nuts, honey, mint. Very creamy indeed. Sultanas, toffee, banana flambéed. Wonderful!

Don't get me wrong, I will gladly drink both again along with a good premium cigar, of course. It's amazing what a premium cigar will do to the overall taste and pleasure of these 2 or any other single malt scotch.Nose: Rich sherry, honey, and fruitcake. Cinnamon spice (and everything nice!) and cloves coming out. The nose is very similar to the 12yr and 18yr, in that they are all heavily sherried. The difference would be that the 16yr has a very spicy profile in addition to the sherry notes. Being a lover of sherry-finished whiskies, I could sit here and nose this sweet dram all night! Mmmmmm.... On the palate, lots of cherries, a little nutty, and more vanilla than on the nose. The vanilla becomes more prevalent with a drop of water. Very soft and fruity, but with a fair amount of spice as well. Extremely luxurious. The Palate: After that rich, inviting nose, the entry was a little empty, which was surprising and a little disappointing. It was sweet and smooth but in a way, kind of like simple syrup, I was expecting more complexity and depth. Things become more interesting with candied orange notes, oaked sherry and a pleasant spiciness, with a little cinnamon towards the end.
