Aberfeldy 12 Year Old Madeira Cask Finish
Pronunciation: {Aber-feldi}Aberfeldy 12 Year Old Madeira Cask Finish is an elegant Highland single malt whisky that combines the classic honey character of the distillery with fruity and spicy notes derived from maturation in casks that previously held sweet Madeira wine.
This exceptional expression is the result of a careful selection of casks and the expert oversight of the Malt Master - Stephanie Macleod, creating a complex and balanced distillate.
After a minimum of 12 years of aging in traditional oak casks, the whisky is finished in Madeira wine casks, adding another layer of complexity and spiciness.
The aroma is dominated by sweet fruits such as apricots and pears, along with honey, vanilla and a subtle hint of smoke. The taste is syrupy, with rich notes of vanilla, caramel, and dried fruits, complemented by delicate spicy accents. The finish is short to medium, with lingering notes of wood and spice.
With an alcohol content of 40% and a volume of 0.7 l, Aberfeldy 12 Madeira Cask is the ideal choice for those seeking a smooth yet complex single malt with a fruity profile. It is recommended to be served neat or with a splash of water to fully develop its rich flavors.
