Aberfeldy 125th Anniversary Edition 25 Year Old Highland Single Malt ~ Scotch Whisky News
Aberfeldy
125th Anniversary Edition
25 Year Old Highland Single Malt Whisky
Matured for over two decades in a combination of re-fill hogsheads and refill butts, the whisky was then finished for over a year in First-fill Oloroso Sherry casks. Oloroso casks augment Aberfeldy’s rich and fruity character, and bestow a delightful spiced note.
With notes of Highland honey, wild strawberries and ripe peaches warmed by the sun – the aroma builds with cocoa powder, creamy caramel and warming cinnamon. On the palate, delicate fruit rests on a malty, cereal base, with a hint of vanilla coffee and a long satisfying finish.
70cl · 46% ABV

(aber-FELL-dee) Aberfeldy was built by John Dewar & Sons in 1896 and remains the only distillery constructed by the Dewar family. Set just outside the town of Aberfeldy in Highland Perthshire, it was positioned beside the Pitilie Burn, whose water still feeds the distillery today. Its history also includes a two-year closure from 1917 during the First World War, and a major expansion in 1973 when two new stills were added to double capacity. Aberfeldy later passed into Bacardi’s ownership in 1998 as part of John Dewar & Sons.
