Aberfeldy 1970 17 Year Old Connoisseurs Choice 75cl
Lot number: 070-1537
Winning bid: £180
An award winning Eastern Highland malt that was almost unknown until it was bought by Bacardi in 1998. Aberfeldy was built in 1896 specifically for the purpose of supplying whisky for John and Tommy Dewar's White Label blend. It has a 5 star visitor centre and its attractive setting sees the distillery attract over 32,000 visitors a year.
Connoisseurs Choice is one of the most easily recognised ranges from the independent bottler Gordon & MacPhail. This range was launched back in the 1960s, a period where most malts were used in blends so this was quite an unusual move for the company. But the range has proved to be a hit for more than 35 years.
Distilled: 1970
Age: 17 years
40%ABV / 75cl
