- Matured solely in first-fill ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 49.4%, this 11-year-old Aberlour delivers the vanilla custard and caramel toffee character that defines bourbon cask maturation in Speyside. The higher strength and exclusive cask selection amplify the whisky's natural sweetness while preserving its silky texture. The ex-bourbon influence is clean and direct, letting the distillery's spirit character shine. A straightforward, well-executed expression for those who appreciate vanilla-forward whisky at bracing strength.
