The Aberfeldy 21yo is a distinguished single malt whisky with a 40% ABV, meticulously crafted in the heart of the Highlands. This 700ml bottle epitomizes the dedication and expertise of the Aberfeldy distillery, which was established in 1896 by John Dewar & Sons. Located to the east of Aberfeldy village, the distillery sources its water from the renowned Pitilie Burn, celebrated for its high-quality water and alluvial gold deposits. Matured for 21 years in a harmonious blend of ex-sherry and ex-bourbon oak casks, this whisky showcases the rich tradition and exquisite craftsmanship of Highland malt whiskies.
The Aberfeldy 21yo boasts a deep golden hue reminiscent of amontillado sherry. Its aroma is a tantalizing bouquet of dates, raisins, cocoa, caramel, and vanilla, complemented by underlying notes of beeswax, heather, dried fruits, and coconut. On the palate, it delivers a full-flavored, medium-bodied experience with a creamy texture enriched by honeyed notes, orange, coconut, barley, and peach. The sherry influence adds depth, culminating in a dry, long, and lingering finish with hints of orange peel and oak.
