Aultmore 12 Year Old Whisky

Founded in 1897 and long regarded as a 'Top Class' malt by blending houses, Aultmore has always been prized for its unique character. Historically elusive as a single malt, it remains one of Speyside’s hidden treasures, enjoyed by those in the know. This 12 year old whisky is a great introduction to the Aultmore range, where the focus on using refill casks allows the delicate and grassy house style to shine through.

On the nose and palate, Aultmore 12 Year Old offers a delicate and harmonious balance of flavours. You’ll find crisp, refreshing apples leading the way, accompanied by soft, ripe fruits that add gentle sweetness. This fruitiness is beautifully balanced by the presence of fresh herbs such as rosemary and thyme, which lend an aromatic, earthy quality to the whisky. Weaving through these layers are subtle floral notes that add an extra dimension of complexity and elegance without overwhelming the whisky’s inherently clean and fresh character. The mouthfeel is silky and light, allowing the nuanced flavours to develop gradually and culminate in a gently herbal, lingering finish that is both refreshing and deeply satisfying.

Bottled at a generous 46% ABV, Aultmore 12 Year Old is presented non-chill filtered and at its natural, light colour, ensuring the fullest expression of its flavour and texture. This approach preserves the distillery's sophisticated character, making it not only a joy to drink but also a thoughtful and impressive gift for both seasoned whisky enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
