Aberfeldy Description
Mellowed for 12 years in handmade oak casks, Aberfeldy 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a smooth, sweet dram offering rich rewards for those who like to dig deeper. This is a whisky that is one step beyond the conventional, mainstream offerings and a more interesting choice than the classic malts commonly available. Aberfeldy is distilled in Alambique copper pot stills, which contributes to the crafting of a fruity, classic highland style of whisky.
Scents of spices and honeyed plump fruits. Syrupy, with lots of vanilla and fudge and just a whisper of smoke on the finish.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
**Best Buy** This fresh and springy 12 year old is from Dewar’s, a brand known best for blended Scotch. This single malt is “the heart of all the Dewar’s blends,” the producer says. Despite delicate notes of vanilla and white flowers, this whisky surprises the palate with a waft of peat before heading into a crisp finish.
Ultimate Spirits Challenge: 90 Points
Earthy nose, driven by autumn leaves and toasted grains . In the mouth it is light with red apple and stone fruit notes, spicy and warm mid-palate. The finish is long and leaves a pleasant pear bitters sensation.
