One of the original “Sherry bombs”. This boldly flavoured, heavily Sherried, small batch whisky has become one of Aberlour’s most beloved offerings. The spirit has been fully aged in Oloroso Sherry casks, imparting it with delightful, decadent notes of dried fruit, spice and nutty fruitcake. This juice is robust and non chill filtered, but still approachable, and a key part of every whisky drinker’s education.

More Details

This is a dram with a fascinating backstory. Legend has it that when the distillery was expanding in 1975, workmen found a time capsule that contained a bottle of whisky wrapped in a newspaper detailing a fire at the distillery back in 1898. A rare find indeed - single malt bottlings were largely unheard of in this era, with most spirit ear-marked for blends.

After polishing off much of the whisky during their lunch break, the tradies sent the remainder off to the lab for analysis. After examining the spirit, Aberlour attempted to recreate it on a commercial scale, with A’Bunadh the result. The bottling references this intriguing history with its name, which translates from the Scots Gaelic as “The Original”.

“Boona”, as it is affectionately known, is now one of Aberlour’s most long-standing and highly regarded expressions. Though this whisky features no age statement, it is rumoured to contain whisky as old as 25 years.

Magnificent Aberlour

I had the yearly subscription and for me this was THE whisky revelation. I would never have found it without the subscription, there are just too many choices in the liquor store. For me this was just the perfect drop

Perfect

This turned out to be an absolute gem of a find. Like Christmas on your palette, A’Bunadh is my new favourite. Snap it up, fruity, spicy, smooth with a bit of 60% punch.

Aberlour A'bunadh cask strength

Great Speyside. Delicious and easy on the palate despite being over 60%.

Doesn't get any better than this.

Aberlour A'bunadh

Doesn't come any better than this. Great all round Speyside. I do like big cask strength Scotches, but some can be a bit rough on the palate. Not so this one, despite being over 60%.

No age statement, so expensive in that respect, but being cask strength and absolutely delicious, doesn't matter.

I've already bought a bottle, and will get another when finished, that is if it's still available.

My only complaint is that this one sneaks up on you if you're not careful and forget it's more than 60%. Haha

Sherry Bomb

If you love a whisky from sherry barrels with lots of character and flavour, you cannot miss with this beauty. Approx 62% alcohol, its delicious.
