This Aultmore Single Malt Whisky from Gordon & MacPhail's Connoisseurs Choice Wood Finished series proudly showcases its 13-year aging process. Initially matured for 10 years in a refill bourbon barrel, it was then refined for an additional 3 years in an ex-St. Joseph red wine cask. Distilled in 2009 and bottled in 2023 at a sipping strength of 45% ABV, this whisky is non-chill-filtered and free from artificial coloring. Its limited release of only 2,034 bottles, combined with notes of sweet milk chocolate, vanilla fudge, raspberries, and delicate spices, renders it a highly sought-after gem among whisky enthusiasts. The classic Aultmore orchard fruit flavor is evident on the nose, complemented by aromas of butterscotch, blackberry, and orange peel.
This whisky is unique due to its maturation process, spending 10 years in a refill bourbon barrel and an additional 3 years in an ex-St. Joseph red wine cask. This combination imbues it with complex flavors and aromas.
This is a limited release with only 2,034 bottles available, making it a rare find for collectors and enthusiasts.
