Batch 37 of Aberlour’s iconic a’bunadh series continues the distillery’s tradition of producing powerful, cask strength whiskies matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry butts. First launched in the late 1990s, a’bunadh—Gaelic for “the origin”—pays homage to the style of whisky Aberlour produced in its earliest days, bottled without chill-filtration, colouring, or dilution. Each batch varies slightly in character and strength, but remains consistent in quality and depth, earning a reputation among whisky enthusiasts for its uncompromising richness.
Aberlour Distillery
Founded in 1879 in the heart of Speyside, Aberlour is known for producing full-bodied whiskies with a pronounced sherry cask influence. With a focus on traditional methods and robust spirit character, the distillery’s single malts are revered for their depth, spice, and complexity, making Aberlour one of the cornerstones of sherried Scotch whisky.

Layers of spice and roasted nuts, including walnut, hazelnut, and Brazil nut, enhance the richness. Finish: Long and warming, with sweet sherry fruit, spice, and nutty undertones that linger with intensity.
