Aberlour10YearOldForestReserve(700mL)

<p>A dreamy, smooth Speysider to bow to the forest.</p><p>The waters in these parts of Speyside are known not only for their purity but also for their <em>healing powers</em> according to <em>druid priests</em> that lived there in times of the Celts. Later, they used the same water to baptise them into Christianity. So it is no wonder they used nature’s best and produced a fantastic product. What better thing to make from water than Whisky!?</p><p>True to this legacy and heritage, young <em>James Fleming</em>, a farmer’s son who supplied grain to local distilleries had a dream to build a perfect distillery in the 19th century. A daring modernist as he was, he did not let anything differ from his expectations. And his dream of the perfect dram lives to this day, in the <em>Aberlour Distillery.</em></p><p><em>Aberlour 10 Year Old Forest Reserve</em> is matured in a combination of <em>ex-Bourbon</em> and<em> ex-Sherry</em> barrels from Jerez before it was finished in French Limousin oak casks. This 10YO dram was named as a bow to the distillery’s commitment to <em>preserve the Speyside forests</em>. (Also very important for great Whisky and a bunch of other things!) A dreamy Speysider with smooth flavors of sweet toffee, praline, and plump raisin, paired with vanilla oak and dried herbs. </p>
