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 opened in 2000 and its idyllic setting sees the distillery attract over 32,000 visitors a year. In a fantastic effort to make the distillery more ecological, the owners have invested in a biomass boiler to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The 16 Year Old Madeira Finish is a duty-free exclusive bottle, "reserved for the discerning traveler". Aberfeldy originally released an 18 Year Old for duty free boutiques, but this was replaced with the 16 Year Old Madeira Finish in 2018. Aberfeldy and Madeira have similar sweet rich notes, so bringing them together was a natural choice. The result is a richer, more complex dram that has a hint of spice.
