Aberlour Triple Cask
About Aberlour Triple Cask
Aberlour Triple Cask is a regional-market Speyside single malt built around three distinct cask types. It combines whisky matured in two different types of American oak ex-bourbon casks with whisky aged in European oak ex-sherry casks. The American oak contributes vanilla, caramel, and soft fruit, while the European sherry oak adds richness, spice, and dried-fruit character.
Unlike Aberlour’s age-stated Double Cask expressions, Triple Cask carries no age statement. Its lighter proof and sweet, fruit-forward profile make it an accessible introduction to Aberlour’s cask-maturation style. The expression is primarily associated with France and other European markets rather than the regular United States lineup.

No Consistent Premium
A dependable manufacturer-published U.S. MSRP was not located. Based on current European and international retailer listings, the estimated MSRP is approximately $64.99 for a 700 mL bottle. Prices between $55 and $70 represent a fair buying range, while a price below $55 is a strong purchase. Imported bottles may cost more because of international shipping, duties, taxes, and retailer markup. Because this remains an actively sold regional expression, it does not normally command a consistent secondary-market premium.
Flavor Profile
A sweet and approachable Speyside single malt opening with golden honey, ripe pear, vanilla caramel, and soft orchard fruit. The palate develops orange, red apple, vanilla, toasted almonds, light licorice, and gentle oak spice. The finish is rounded and subtly warming, leaving caramel, orchard fruit, roasted nuts, mild sherry sweetness, and lingering spice.
