Aultmore 18 YO

Aultmore 18 YO, 46 %

Aultmore is a single malt primarily used in the blended whisky products of it's owner company, John Dewar & Sons. Back in 2015 the Aultmore 18 YO was launched. It is mainly sold at Travel Retail (expect to pay around GBP 110), but can also be bought in regular online stores.

Nose: Nuts, banana cake and vanilla. Warm and soft nose. After a bit it reminds me mainly of sun warmed wood, on a lazy, sunny afternoon.

Taste: Spicy palate, with pepper, ginger, and a soft woody bitterness, It appears somewhat creamy, with a medium to low sweetness.

Finish: Medium long finish. Caramel and hints of mint. A fine landing.

Comments: Pleasant enough, I guess.
