Aberfeldy 21 Year Old Highland Scotch Single Malt Whisky with Gift Box, Aged in Oak Casks, Sherry & Bourbon Finish, 40% ABV, 70cl / 700ml

Product Information

You acknowledge, understand and agree that we are not obligated to review, check or monitor any Contributions, but we may do so. All three are aged in a combination of ex-bourbon casks, first fill oloroso sherry casks, and refill casks which are then married together before bottling — though note the additional aging on the 16 year old below. Currently Aberfeldy are going through a lot of revamp and rebranding including major alterations to their distillery to install a biomass generator, making their malt more environmentally friendly. Temperatures will be around normal for the time of year, but in any drier interludes, particularly if the wind comes from a more easterly direction, temperatures could take a dip with some frost by night.

Palate: Well-rounded and mellow, more apple at first, along with poached pear in dark chocolate sauce, soon joined by clementine segments and honey on toast. Launched in October of 2005, this 21 year old lies at the core of the Aberfeldy range and is something of a flagship for the brand. I shared the financial burden with my Scottish pal as part of our annual Christmas pact to split the cost and explore a more expensive bottle that normally we could not justify on our own steam, a great partnership i can highly recommend.

Re-fill and re-char casks provide a perfect harmony of rich Sherry casks and vanilla laden Bourbon casks. This 21 year old from the Highland region has been finished off in sherry casks having spent a large part of it's life in both first and second-fill bourbon barrels.

I was 16 years old then and my holiday job was as a grouse beater, driving the birds across the moors to the 'guns' sitting in (and on) their butts, waiting to unleash both barrels at anything which came their way.

A familiar cereal element kicks off the nose, though here it rides along with a slight mushroom note. Rain dying out during Friday with winds easing, Sunny spells over the weekend with a few showers and lighter winds. And it was in fact a suggestion on the side of one of the very knowledgeable barmen working there, who could always be trusted. That’s what we wondered so the inaugural meeting of the 101 Club – set up by a group of Edinburgh-based whisky enthusiasts to check out the whiskies in Ian Buxton’s book 101 Whiskies to Try Before You Die – was a side-by-side blind tasting of Aberfeldy’s own 21 year old and Gordon and McPhail’s bottling of a 20 year old single cask Aberfeldy.

A great feeling I have only experienced on a few occasions (for example over a dram of King George V, to name but one. Given my love of this dram, it's a tough one to review fairly, but let's take off my rose-tinted glasses and try to be at least somewhat analytical about things.

One taste confirmed the wisdom of the choice - it knocked my socks off - and I bid goodbye to my golden memories of tramping the moors of Aberfeldy. Aberfeldy’s bottle is described by Royal Mile Whiskies as ‘an old smoothie for after-dinner sipping’.

This 1999 single cask Aberfeldy was a hand fill available at the distillery in early 2017 making it roughly 18 years of age.
