White Oak 2012

Aberlour White Oak 2012 is a vintage release from the renowned White Oak series, in which Aberlour's spirit matures entirely in American oak casks. This American white oak (Quercus alba) is prized for producing soft, subtle character that complements Aberlour's fruity spirit without overwhelming it.

Distilled and bottled at 40% ABV, the 2012 vintage represents an approachable entry point to the range. Maturation in American oak casks defines its profile: vanilla and woody notes take centre stage, supported by the house-style fruitiness that Aberlour is known for.

In the glass, this single malt reveals itself as balanced and accessible. The nose shows malty warmth and oak influence, while the palate offers soft fruit and sustained wood notes. This is a whisky for those who appreciate how cask selection shapes spirit—not a bombastic expression, but a study in how American oak can subtly transform a distillery's character.
