A nice bottle of single cask Aberfeldy distilled in 1991 and bottled on October 10th 2012. It was hand-filled, hand-dipped in gold wax, hand-labelled using hand-made paper, hand-printed with woodblocks of a design by local artist Ryan Hannigan and then hand-numbered. As the bee heavy design suggests, it's a beautiful honeyed dram.
Aberfeldy
Originally founded in 1896 by John Dewar's & Sons, Aberfeldy distillery remains a key component of the blend. Until the 1960s, a direct rail link was used to transport casks to the Dewar's warehouses in Perth. This strong association has ensured its survival with only 2 years of hibernation since 1896. Aberfeldy's whiskies have enjoyed a rise in popularity in recent times thanks to a successful rebranding and expansion of the range by current owners Bacardi. The distillery remains relatively unscathed with the only notable expansion in 1972 when the number of stills was doubled. Aberfeldy is worth visiting and features a wide range of bottle-your-own options, bar and cafe.
