"Aberlour presents the new version of its 10 year old Single Malt under the name "Forest Reserve". A name which reflects the commitment of the Scottish distillery to the preservation of the environment, particularly its native region of Speyside.
  
After maturing for at least ten years in barrels that contained Bourbon and Sherry, this new edition brings aging in an additional barrel with a finish in French Limousin oak barrels. The final product is a rich and lively whisky, marked in particular by a beautiful presence on the palate.
  
The nose is marked by damp wood, sherry with menthol and candy notes.
  
The rather dry but sweet palate evokes warm honey and spices.
  
The long finish evolves on spices with a slight bitterness. Aberlour 10 years is aimed at occasional enthusiasts who wish to introduce themselves to the world of Single Malts."
