  Sweet and straight forward. It has the sweet fruit taste and chocolate notes which are expressed in many reviews and notes. But it is not one of the greats. The finish is not long on the palette and it is simple.

  I am a big peat fan but I always like the Aberlour 12. A rich, full bodied taste, always a pleasure to drink any time of the year. Smooth and mellow with hints of vanilla, nutmeg and licorice.

  This is probably the best value for your money scotch. It outperforms whiskies that cost $20 more. Smooth, sweet with some nice spice and wood. Very well balanced. Great Speyside malt, and I'm a guy who's usually an Islay drinker.

  probably one of the sweetest drams I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. Very fruity, smooth and buttery on the palette with Chistmassy spices that add lovely complexity. Just so very nice and a steal at the price. Easily repurchase worthy.

  Surprising great taste at a affordable price. I try new whiskeys every year at christmas and then drink them throughout the year. This Whiskey's warm flavor had me returning and using up the bottle before January was half over. Definitely will tell my Maker's Mark friends they need to give over to a new brand Aberlour.

  Bought a bottle after hearing good things, and i wasnt disappointed. Really rich dried fruits on the nose with apple and cinammon. The palate is more of the same followed by a really nice oak charr. Great stuff after a meal.

  For the price, it is a great sherry dram. I would rate it better than Glendronach, and below Glenfarclas.

  I was very disappointed by this expression. This whisky doesn't lack for richness, but, there is no smoothness or nuance, here -- a distasteful alcohol burn and accompanying heat dominate and overwhelm everything else on the palate. Frankly, I found Dewar's White Label to be a vastly superior whisky to this offering. In my opinion, Aberlour 12 is inferior to Balvenie 14 Caribbean Cask, Glengoyne 10, Glenfiddich 12 and most every other single malt or blended Scotch that I've ever tried. I'll avoid this one like the plague.

  I had some A'bunadh (approx 1/6 btl.) left (batch 53 at 59.7% abv) and deciddd to combine it with a bottle of the 12 which created a hybrid of approx 43-44% abv and the result was an astoundingly great dram

  Nice rich taste, raisins come through stronger than the cinamon.

  A very flavorful single malt but I do prefer juice that is 100 pf. & above. That being said this is my go to when I'm in the mood for a "quiet" Scotch

  100% on the Notes from Billy A. Most notably, from the pages intro, I find this malt much LESS in the fruit senses than say The Glenlivet which I always love the Pear and other fruit from the Nose to the Palate. Arberlour is a Rich, Cigar Box of Natural woody flavors, where I find the Sherry maturation provides just the balance to make this a SOLID performer!
