The Whisky Tales – Season 2 “Rina” Aultmore 2011
The Rina Series from The Whisky Tales presents an elegant expression of Aultmore 2011, matured in a First Fill Bourbon Barrel and bottled at a formidable 58.6% cask strength. This release beautifully captures the distillery’s naturally delicate and refined spirit while embracing the vibrant sweetness and richness imparted by fresh bourbon oak.
Bright citrus and ripe pear aromas lead the experience, followed by layers of vanilla, caramel, and soft orchard fruits that unfold across the palate. Despite its impressive strength, the whisky maintains remarkable balance and clarity, delivering a clean mouthfeel and an uplifting finish that lingers long after the final sip. The bourbon cask enhances Aultmore’s floral elegance without overshadowing its signature character, creating a whisky that is both expressive and effortlessly approachable.
At the heart of this release is spirit from Aultmore Distillery, a distillery hidden among the mist-covered moorlands of Speyside. Revered for its fresh, grassy character and delicate floral aromas, Aultmore has long been prized by blenders and enthusiasts alike for its purity, elegance, and understated complexity.
The result is a whisky that combines power with finesse—showcasing vibrant fruit, creamy sweetness, and the bright, floral personality that has made Aultmore one of Speyside’s most respected hidden gems. A captivating dram that rewards both casual enjoyment and thoughtful contemplation.
