After a patchy history, Aultmore was sold to Bacardi subsidiary, Dewars, who offered the first ever official bottling in 2004 - so Aultmore of this ilk is not common. The house style has been described as "fragrant on the nose, substantial on the tongue." We find it typically light, spicy and fruity with most of the wood employed being American oak. Very highly prized by blenders.

Matured in two Bourbon hogsheads with an outturn of 450 bottles, this is one of the older Aultmores we've encountered - and very reasonably priced. Expect ginger, peaches and cream on the nose, with allspice, lemon zest and coriander on the palate. 51.8% Alc./Vol.
