New rare cask

Premium single malt from Aberlour
By Rob Allanson
Speyside distillery Aberlour has released its latest premium single malt, Casg Annamh, to provide adventurous malt lovers with the ideal introduction to Sherry cask matured whiskies.
With its distinctive sherry signature, the new expression highlights Aberlour’s commitment to choosing the best casks and maturing liquid of the highest quality to provide a deep and satisfying taste experience.
Translating as ‘Rare Cask’ in Gaelic, Casg Annamh has been created in small batches from a limited number of carefully selected casks. Rare and hard to obtain, the Oloroso Sherry casks have a significant influence on the liquid and perfectly complement Aberlour’s distillate flavour, bringing sweet and rich notes.
Graeme Cruickshank, Aberlour’s master distiller, commented: “Casg Annamh is a tribute to our craftsmen’s passion for sherry and their expertise when it comes to creating a rare and fine single malt.”
