 +===== Aberlour =====
 +
 +//Distillerie depuis 1879.//
 +
 +C'est sur les rives verdoyantes de la Lour et de la Spey que James Fleming installa sa distillerie en 1879. Leur eau pure est l'un des ingrédients essentiels des single malts aberlour. Également utilisée pour la production, elle est ensuite naturellement filtrée sur le site de la distillerie puis rendue purifiée à la nature. 
 +
 +Quant à l'orge, elle est récoltée dans un rayon de 24 km autour de la distillerie.

 +| ::: |**Un Single Malt d'exception** - Fidèle à la signature des single malts Aberlour, ce 12 ans est issu d'une double maturation en fûts de chêne ayant contenu du bourbon et du sherry, lui conférant ainsi le juste équilibre entre des saveurs fruitées et épicées.|
 +| ::: |**Les notes de dégustation :**|
 +| ::: |**La robe** est d'une belle couleur ambrée, aux légers reflets or rubis.|
 +| ::: |**Le nez** est rond et doux, avec des notes de pommes rouges.|
 +| ::: |**Le palais** est marqué par l'intensité du sherry, avec des arômes de cacao, de toffee et de cannelle.|
 +| ::: |**La finale** est chaude et intense, aux notes sucrées, avec un légère pointe d'épices.|

 +==== Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 10 years old ====

 +|  {{whisky:benromach.jpg?400}}  ^Note du distilleur|
 +| ::: |Delicious forest fruits and creamy malt. A wisp of smoke and lingering, luscious sherry notes.|
 +| ::: |At Benromach small batches of whisky are distilled by hand using the finest barley malted with a touch of peat smoke.|
 +| ::: |Using the finest natural ingredients, our distillers orchestrate every second of the distillation process; there are no short cuts to perfection.|
 +| ::: |Every cask is hand-filled, hand-weighed and hand-stamped before maturing for many years in our traditional dunnage warehouses.|
 +| ::: |Why do we make it this way ? Because it creates a gorgeous classic Speyside character : beautifully balanced with a light touch of smoke.|
 +| ::: |Our distillers handcraft every drop of our single malt and judge each moment of the distillation by sound, smell and touch.|

 +  *Degré : 43%
 +  *Note : Un bon whisky 'étalon'. Très équilibré, un peu de tourbe/bruyère, très peu de salé, un peu de boisé. Beaucoup de rondeur, un peu de tout, pas un signature.

 +
 +===== Glenlivet =====
 +//Established in 1824.//
 +
 +In 1824, George Smith established his distillery in the remote and //wild// location of Glenlivet. Here, he found the //perfect// conditions to craft the //definitive// single malt whisky.
 +
 +Through this //timeless// primeval valley run the //icy// waters of the river Livet. It's name, //"smooth flowing one"// in Gaelic, reflects the Glenlivet's beautiful //rich// and elegant flavours.
 +
 +==== 12 Years - First fill Single malt ==== 
 +
 +Matured only in first fill american oak casks, the Glenlivet 12 year old first fill has a perfect balance of late summer flowers and ripe fruit aromas.
 +
 +High up in the remote area of Glenlivet, George Smith was the first to produce a whisky of such //exceptional// quality that it went on to define the taste of Speyside.
 +
 +His definitive single malt //inspired// so many other distilleries to adopt the appellation "Glenlivet" that it became known as the "longest glen in Scotland". In 1884, a legal agreement was reached to distinguish Smith's original whisky by referring to it exclusively as "The Glenlivet".

 +===== Kilkerran =====
 +
 +==== 12 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky ==== 
 +
 +Distilled y Mitchell's Glengyle Ltd. Matured in oak.
 +
 +|  {{whisky:kilkerran-12-ans.jpg?150}}  ^Note du distilleur|
 +| ::: |Mithcell's Glengyle Ltd. are very proud to be continuing and adding to the great Campbeltown Distilling tradition and the choice of name reflects that.|
 +| ::: |Kilkerran is derived from the Gaelic 'Ceann Loch Cille Chiarain' which is the name of the original settlement where Saint Kieran had his religious cell and now Campbeltown now stands.|
 +| ::: |Kilkerran is thought to be a suitable name for a new Campbeltown Malt since it was unusual for the old Campbeltown distilleries to be called after a Glen, a custom more usually associated with the Speyside region.|
 +| ::: |Not chill filtered. No added colouring|
