Aultmore – 12 Year Old (70cl, 46%)

Aultmore – 12 Year Old is a whisky from Aultmore (Speyside). Aged 12 years, bottled at 46% ABV, 70cl. Aultmore distillery was built in 1896 and powered by a steam engine right up until 1969. Completely rebuilt in the 1970s with nothing of the old buildings left, the faithful engine that once powered the distillery 365 days a year now sits in the distillery’s reception. Most of the whisky produced here ends up in Dewar’s blends however, more recently, releases have included a 12 Year Old and 18 Year Old single malt making it more common to see their own name on the bottle. Launched in 2014 as part of Dewar’s The Last Great Malts range, the 12 year old is elegant, light and fruity. Please note minor marking to tube.
