Aberfeldy 18 Year Old Finished in Tuscan Red Wine Casks

Malt Master, Stephanie MacLeod, carefully monitored maturation and flavour development in the casks until the desired flavour profile had been achieved. Pauillac is a robust wine, so the goal was to use this cask type to complement and elevate the signature character of Aberfeldy, not mask it.

Stephanie comments,Pauillac casks are the aristocrats of the Mdoc, they provide notes of black cherries, blackberries and a cedar wood spice. Aberfeldys wonderfully soft signature honey and creamy vanilla notes are invigorated with swathes of plush ripe fruits and lovely nutty aromas to create an incredibly elegant and fruitful whisky
