Each expression reveals how the different styles of this exotic wine complement the refined character of Aultmore’s single malt, offering a richly scented exploration into an array of nuanced flavours. Aultmore 15 Years Old Ruby Marsala Cask Finish was finished in Marsala Rubino Dolce casks. Their fruity flavours and high tannins imbue the elegant profile of Aultmore with notes of succulent cherries, ripe plums and the tang of pomegranate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNose : Light sweetness meets fruit and a hint of spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalate : Cherry, peach, plum and pomegranate.

In character, therefore, Aultmore shares some of the same characters as Linkwood – fragrant on the nose, substantial on the tongue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen drinking locally, you wouldn’t ever ask for an Aultmore, but for ‘a dram of the Buckie road’. Located in splendid isolation on the route which runs from that fishing port to Keith, it has – until very recently – been a rare bird as a single malt.
