Aberlour A'bunadh Batch #61 is a distinguished whisky that pays homage to the founder of Aberlour, James Fleming. The name "A'bunadh" comes from the Gaelic language, meaning "the original" or "of the origin." This batch #61 is a remarkable single malt that has been carefully matured in Spanish Oloroso sherry butts, which imparts a rich and complex flavor profile to the spirit. Bottled at cask strength, this whisky boasts a robust and intensely flavored character with an impressive alcohol content of 60.8%. This high ABV delivers a full-bodied and creamy palate, offering an array of tasting notes such as orange, black cherries, dried fruit, ginger, and dark bitter chocolate, all perfectly enhanced by the influences of Sherry and Oak. On the nose, Aberlour A'bunadh Batch #61 presents an equally captivating experience, with aromas of mixed spices, praline, and spiced orange, all deeply interwoven with the distinctive notes of Oloroso Sherry. This harmonious blend of flavors and aromas creates a luxurious and deeply satisfying whisky that promises to captivate any whisky enthusiast. Aberlour A'bunadh Batch #61 is praised as a great and intense sherry bomb, dominated by sun-ripened orange, raisins, cinnamon, chocolate, and sugar. Adding a splash of water can be beneficial, as it diffuses the high alcohol content and enhances the malt's creaminess and harmony. The whisky's reddish copper hue shines brilliantly, while complex sherry aromas lift up, featuring zests of old oranges, creamy milk chocolate, velvety vineyard peach, and caramelized sugar. The taste is equally impressive, with dark sherry aromas, dried berries, dark oranges, spicy wood tones, and a hint of cinnamon. Water addition enhances the malt’s creaminess and sweetness, with notes of toffee, milk chocolate, caramelized sugar, oranges, cherries, cinnamon, raisins, and peaches. The finish, when water is added, becomes relatively mild and creamy, with lingering notes of cinnamon, sugar, raisins, hazelnuts, and walnuts, providing a warm and satisfying conclusion.
