Aberlour was named Distillery of the Year in 2016 and Aberlour A’Bundah won Whisky of the Year in 2018. Master Distiller Graeme Cruickshank and his team at Aberlour Distillery celebrating their success.

About Aberlour Distillery:

Aberlour single malts are usually double cask matured for at least 10 years in the finest hand-picked Oloroso Sherry butts and first-fill Bourbon casks. When selected and deemed ready for bottling, the subtly different flavors of the whisky from each type of cask are orchestrated into a distinguished range of rich, rewardingly complex single malts. Founded in 1879 in the same Scottish village producing Walkers shortbread.
