There’s something very romantic about Aberfeldy Scotch Whiskey – the distillery’s origin, nestled within a lush valley in the foothills of the Central Highlands of Scotland and the story behind the distillery’s water source, which is, of course, a critical element behind a premium quality whiskey.
Christened ‘The Golden Dram’ – due to the pure freshwater drawn from the Pitilie Burn which was known to contain deposits of alluvial gold – Aberfeldy’s 12-Year-Old Malt Scotch Whiskey is a full-bodied, premium whiskey, golden in colour and rich in scents.
Your senses will be enveloped with spices and honeyed plump fruits, with tastes of syrup and vanilla fudge, and a whisper of smoke on the finish, all made possible by the longer fermentation process and oak cask barrels making Aberfeldy 12, super smooth.
Mellowed for 12 years in handmade oak casks, this smooth, sweet dram offers rich rewards for those who like to dig deeper. Drink it neat or take your pick from the Aberfeldy cocktail collection.
