- Description
- Aberlour's 7-year-old from cask 10976, matured in refill wood from 2008 to 2015 and independently bottled by Douglas Laing, reveals the distillery's lighter, cereal-forward character rather than its typical sherry-heavy profile. Creamy barley-rich notes dominate, with the refill cask preserving the spirit's natural sweetness without heavy oak influence. Best enjoyed neat or with a touch of water by those seeking Speyside character without cask dominance.
