How to Enjoy
Aberlour 18 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is best enjoyed neat in a whisky glass so the ripe fruit, sherry, chocolate, toffee, oak, and spice notes can open gradually. Let it rest for a few minutes before sipping to allow the 18-year maturity and sherry cask influence to show more depth.
A few drops of water can bring forward more apricot, orange zest, honey, and chocolate while softening the oak. A large ice cube also works for a slower pour, but this bottle is best treated as a premium sipping Scotch. Pair it with dark chocolate, fruit tarts, roasted nuts, aged cheese, shortbread, crème brûlée, and after-dinner desserts.
