Aberlour-Glenlivet 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1000ml) - Old bottling
Speyside, Highlands,
SCOTLAND
$399. 00
Bottle
$4788.00 Dozen
ABV: 40%
An antique Aberlour from the 1980s. This is still the biggest selling single malt in France (and the French drink more whisky than the Scots!)
Note: Some lifting to the edges of the front label. Other reviews... Colour: pure gold. Nose: ah, the old bottle effect? Lots of tropical fruits, mango, passion fruit, guava… Goes on with some eucalyptus, camphor, beeswax, wood polish… Very nice. Hints of sherry, walnuts, hot caramel. Very nice indeed! Mouth: amazing attack for such a mundane malt. Very peppery and strong, even a little sharp. Lots of herbal tea, burnt bread, black toffee… Creme caramel, Irish coffee. Not extremely complex but I’m sure this one must have been a bang for your buck malt when it was on the shops’ shelves. Rather long, creamy and heathery finish.
