Nice taste
Sherry and oak give way to something sweeter and light. Classically spey in flavour but with a nice light fruity touch.
Sherry and oak notes, plum, pepper, fudge
Ripe fruit, demerara sugar, fudge, something light and sweet, almost pear like
Short, warming
całkiem przyjemna whisky ale jednak czuć że to młody destylat gdyż dość mocno jest zaznaczony alkoholowość która jeszcze nie jest zbalansowana

You're not supposed to call any particular whisky, "THE BEST". They're all good and all different. We all have an opinion & different likes: This is my favourite, none the less, up there with the best, without being too sweet - Amazing!
I note, another review calling this, a real diamond in the rough! 💯🥃👍Sweet, delicate & warming nose, balanced, light, toffee smooth palate & a medium to long, super special, warming finish.
Sweet, delicate, clearly sherry, dried fruit, warming
Balanced, light & smooth! Prominent dried fruits!
Medium to Long, super special, warming!
One of the best entries into scotch
nice and very drinkable whiskey. perhaps a bit too diluted during bottling, would almost work when thirsty. otherwise smooth, sweet enjoyable.
fruity, spicy
light smooth drinkable. Sherry , caramel, hint of coffee
light, sweet
I like de tast of sherry, maybe better at 46%. A lighter version of A' bunadh
sherry, ripe fruit, apple
sherry sweet dry fruits
sherry
ex-bourbon + ex-sherry (probably 2nd fill)
exactly what you would expect but the 40% is a problem.
No alcohol burn, raisin, honey, vanilla, oak and toffee
Fruity. stop.
Too light in my opinion due to the low abv.
It's like drinking flavoured water.
Short finish, honey and cinnamon.
Then comes through the amaretto (italian candy-dessert) that I don't really like.
sweet and smooth, real pleasure
Smooth and not too strong. Good Whisky for beginners.
tons of fruity sherry, with that tannic oak overtone that heavily sherry influenced scotches sometimes get. It's certainly not offensive, but not my favorite sherry bomb.
smooth going down and easy to drink, good introduction for beginners.
a lot of Sherry casks and a few Bourbon casks
strong sherry notes, a hint of vanilla and quince, pear, herbs, a bit honey
smooth and easy drinking, Sherry and Vanilla, relatively dry on the tongue but all in all fundamentally sweet
short and medium-warm, sparkling at the back sidea of the tongue
good sherry whisky. less faborable than a Glenfarclas 10YO but still good dram
Hohe Sherry Note, gewisse Süße und Würze. Nicht gerade rund und etwas wenig spektakulär. Aber für einen 10 jährigen geht das völlig in Ordnung. Für den Preis sicher machbar. Bevorzuge dann aber doch den 12 jährigen.

Whisky finishowana w beczkach po sherry z wyraźnym, owocowym smakiem i przyjemną pikanterią. Bardzo dobra whisky w swojej półce cenowej.

Whisky finished in sherry cask with a clear fruity taste and pleasant spiciness. Very good whisky in that price shelf.
Sherry, fruity, sweet, oakiness, full

Spicy, sherry, fruity, chocolate
Cinnamon and sweet aroma with a warm slightly peated finish.
Nice sherried nose. Good value quality scotch.
Rich dried fruits and toffee. A hint of pecan pie.
Light oak, vanilla, toffee, juicy raisins
The lightest spiciness, dry wood.
Assez doux, des notes boisées et très légèrement fumé.
Ein wunderbarer allday Whisky. Der darf in meiner Bar nicht fehlen.
Just really drinkable stuff. Super smooth and delicious. It's not going to challenge you at all. But it will win you over!
Začátek má ovocnou chuť, ale potom přijde mírná kořeněnost. Velice jemná a příjemná.
Apple on the nose, slightly salty/smokey on the palate, bitter herbs, short, metallic finish.
Rich, a hint of alcohol and warmth but no burn. Hint of sherry and some vanilla. Nice enough but there are better out there
weich im Geruch, fruchtig, rund im Geschmack
Weich, süß, langer Abgang mit Bittertönen wie Ramazzotti
Weich, süß
Süß
Süß, weich dann bitter
just Sweet Sherry
Sweet all the way, toffee and caramel. Hint of peat in the after taste
I really love this one, really rich and sweet. Lots of toffee flavours
sweet caramel nose and even sweeter taste
Not a big highland guy but some go above and beyond and in this case it doesn't. Not a bad dram but its kinda like macallan gold downgraded into a duller version. Sweet nose smooth palate with notes of honey and pencil shavings. Medium finish
Really enjoyed this.
Zacht en fris met een rokerige nasmaak. Heerlijk whisky. Prima prijs kwaliteit verhouding.
A fine resembly sweet malt
süß würziger Einsteiger. richtig gut.
A really smokey flavor
Somehow bitter taste... not my favourite.
Erg zacht maar wel vol van smaak
Unkomplizierter, leckerer Einsteigerwhisky
Intensiv fruchtig, würzig und süß. Leichte Vanille
Sehr mild, wieder fruchtig und süß
Würzig, Zartbitterschokolade, tolles Mundgefühl
Sweet and smooth.
A good session scotch. unpeated best value for money
On the nose the sherry is there, but overruled by vanilla, caramel, apple and pear.
Altough this one is only 40%, the alcohol is tickling your nose like a 55% one.
The palate is soft, round and smooth with a little bite of warming spices like nutmeg and cinnamon.
The medium/long wooden finish is warm and fruity.
This one does everything you would expect from a Speyside.
76 points.
Great Scotch and the best Aberlour--don't spend extra for the others unless you want to buy a lesser quality.
Soft taste
Best value for the price. Very enjoyable one.
Un classique a prix très abordable.
Léger en bouche, pas très fumé.
