Aberfeldy 18

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 54.9%

Score: 91 Points

This cask-strength bottling is only available at the Aberfeldy Distillery’s gift shop, and is well worth seeking out. The nose is malty with hints of cinnamon and allspice, and the taste is spicy with cinnamon notes on top and sweet touches of caramel candy and honey underneath along with a hint of herbs. Water releases a nice butterscotch note that carries over into the finish, along with subtle spices. A well-rounded and complex dram.
