Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Region

Owner

Pernod Ricard

Founded

1879 | James Fleming

Aberlour, meaning mouth of the river, is one of Pernod Ricard’s most well known distilleries. They are in fact the best selling single malt in France (probably to do with their French owners). Known for releasing predominantly sherry cask matured whisky such as the Abunadh and Casg Annamh, Aberlour has seen a rise in popularity (and price). If spicy, rich whisky full of dried fruits and dare we say….. Christmas cake spices is your thing then Aberlour is the dram for you.
