Batch 79 of Aberlour A’Bunadh proudly continues the tradition of this cask‑strength juggernaut: unfiltered, untempered, and soaked in Oloroso sherry richness. With an alcohol strength of 60.5% ABV, it's a bold, full-bodied malt loaded with sherried complexity—ideal for those who appreciate a lavish, deeply flavored dram that’s truly unafraid of intensity

Production & Character

\n
A’Bunadh—meaning “the original” in Gaelic—is crafted exclusively from first-fill Oloroso sherry butts, bottled non–chill‑filtered and at full cask strength with no age statement.
\n
\n
Each batch is unique. Batch 79, specifically, remains rich and powerful at 60.5% ABV.

Tasting Notes

\n
Nose: Opens with deep, sherry-laden aromas—mixed spices, praline, and spiced orange, all harmonizing with pronounced Oloroso tones.
\n
\n
Palate: Rich and full-bodied; layers of orange, black cherries, dried fruit, and ginger intertwine with dark bitter chocolate, sherry, and oak for a sensation both bold and creamy.
\n
\n
Finish: Long, robust, and spicy—echoes of exotic spice, dark chocolate, and oak dominate the lingering close.
\n

Community Perspective

\n
One enthusiast highlighted the striking Oloroso intensity, noting it was surprisingly smooth for such a high-proof whisky—and dangerously easy to sip despite the heat.
\n

\n
“The Oloroso cask must have been fresh because it has a very pronounced Oloroso nose and palate… despite its high ABV … I found it to be an easy sipper.
\n

\n
However, not all batches are equally praised—some drinkers found Batch 79 “disappointing…awash with heat…simple, boring profile” lacking depth.
