Process & Profile

Aberfeldy 16 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a refined Highland expression that bridges sweetness and spice through extended aging and sherry cask finishing. Distilled from Scottish malted barley using copper pot stills, the whisky matures for 16 years in ex-bourbon oak casks before being finished in first-fill Oloroso sherry butts. This double maturation deepens the distillerys signature honeyed character with notes of dried fruit, chocolate, and warm spice, delivering a beautifully rounded single malt that reflects Aberfeldys rich heritage along the River Tay.
