Description
Nestled within a lush valley in the foothills of the Central Highlands of Scotland, Aberfeldy Distillery lies within the quaint village of Aberfeldy, Perthshire. Aberfeldy whisky is known as the ‘Golden Dram’. Golden, for the distillery’s water source is the famous Pitilie Burn – renowned for its water quality and famed for its rich deposits of alluvial gold. Golden, for Aberfeldy continues to be awarded gold medals in international spirits awards. Golden, for every sip laden with honey, spices, citrus and hints of vanilla.
Mellowed for 12 years in handmade oak casks, this smooth, sweet dram offers 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.
Bottle size: 750ml

Origins
Founded by the two Dewar’s brothers: Tommy and John Alexander, Aberfeldy distillery rose up in 1898 and was designed by the famous architect, Charles Doig. The location - Perthshire - is not just picturesque, it’s also a practical master stroke, chosen for its access to a plentiful water supply - the Pitilie Burn, rich with alluvial gold. Aberfeldy is known for its sweet honeyed richness, deriving from the distillery’s longer fermentation times. After distilling in copper pot stills, and aging to perfection in the finest oak casks, our whisky is ready for you to enjoy when Stephanie MacLeod, our Malt Master, deems it perfect.
