Aberfeldy 12 Year Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Aberfeldy 12 is the honeyed heart of Dewar's — the Highland malt John Dewar's sons built a distillery for in 1898, on the Pitilie Burn, a stream that once carried flecks of gold — and Drinkhacker graded it B+ for sweetly honeyed cereal and buttery biscuits. Aberfeldy sits in Perthshire between the Highlands and the Lowlands and has fed the Dewar's blends for over a century; Bacardi owns it now, and the 12 Year is the distillery's own bottling — matured in ex-bourbon, first-fill Oloroso sherry, and refill casks, married, and bottled at 40% ABV. Drinkhacker: sweetly honeyed cereal and buttery biscuit with light spice on the finish. The Whiskey Wash, Scotch Noob, and The Whiskey Jug all land on the same word — honey — with heather, vanilla, and a soft, waxy texture from the long fermentation. Expect a nose of heather honey, vanilla, and orchard fruit, a smooth, medium-bodied palate of honeycomb, malt, and a touch of orange, and a clean, gently spiced finish. Honest note: the definition of an approachable Highland malt — for the Scotch newcomer, the Dewar's drinker curious about the malt inside, and the honey lover; not a peat or sherry bomb, and never trying to be. Neat or with a drop of water. Aberfeldy, the golden dram.
