Professional reviews

Serge Valentin (87)

Blind #36 – Nice amber colour. At first nosing it seems weaker that the two previous malts, but the heavy alcohol is soon to take control. Nice sherry and nice wood, but not too many different aromas. A little simple. Could be a cask strength Macallan or an A’bunadh. The palate is much nicer, for once. Quite creamy, a little sweetish, and very satisfying. This one is nicely ‘crafted’. It sort of ‘coats’ your mouth. A very, very good OB, I think. As some say: ‘Good Quality, Long Use!’ My first guesses were Macallan C/S or A’bunadh, and it was Aberlour A’bunadh batch #8 (60.2%, OB) indeed.
