Product details
This limited-edition Aberfeldy was finished for six months in Cadillac white wine casks, sourced from a sustainable 40-hectare estate. Found just south of Bordeaux, Cadillac AOC is a region known for its sweet, aromatic wines and sun-kissed sloping terrains. It’s a finish that complements Aberfeldy’s sweet, honeyed whisky beautifully.
The distillery is known as the ‘Golden Dram’ because its water source, the Pitilie Burn (which translates from Scots Gaelic to ‘small river’), contains deposits of alluvial gold, which is still panned today! In keeping with the theme, Aberfeldy’s hallmark flavour is rich honey, thanks to lengthy fermentation times – so you can expect a rich, sweet, fruity whisky here
