Aultmore 15 Year Old Dry Marsala Cask

Aultmore Distillery, founded in 1897 in the Speyside region, is known for producing a clean, refined spirit often described as grassy, herbal, and delicately fruity. Historically prized for blending, Aultmore has gained increasing recognition as a single malt thanks to releases that highlight its elegant distillery character. This 15 Year Old Dry Marsala Cask expression explores a drier, more structured style of fortified wine finishing, where Sicilian Marsala casks contribute subtle nuttiness, spice, and savoury complexity while preserving the whisky’s bright core.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Green apple and honey lead, followed by toasted almond, citrus peel, and light floral notes with a touch of dry spice.

Palate: Crisp and layered, with notes of baked pear, malt sweetness, and gentle caramel balanced by nutty Marsala influence, oak, and warming spice.

Finish: Medium-long and refined, with lingering orchard fruit, soft oak tannin, and a lightly dry, savoury fade.
