Aberfeldy 12 yr old

Matured in a combination or Sherry, Bourbon, re-fill and re-char cask -40% ABV. We lose a fair bit to the angels.

The “Angels Share” is the Whisky lost over the years while the liquid is maturing in oak-casks, disappearing into the air before we’re ready to bottle Almost a third is lost before we’re ready to bottle our Aberfeldy 12 year old.

TASTING NOTES
Scented with spiced and honeyed plump fruits.
Syrupy, with lots of vanilla and fudge and just a whisper of smoke on the finish.
