A classic Highland dram, Aberfeldy 12 Year Old single malt whisky is a creamy, sweet and gently smoky example of what the region produces. Bolstered by plenty of Aberfeldy's signature honeyed fruit character, this makes for a superbly laid-back sipper. The label comes with a rather handsome black and rose-gold colour palate to match the rich, malty, honeyed flavour profile.
Aberfeldy Golden Hot Toddy recipe:
- 50ml of Aberfeldy 12 Year Old
- 1/2 shot of local honey
- 1/2 shot of lemon juice
Combine the above ingredients in a mug and top up with hot water. Garnish with lemon, a cinnamon stick, and some star anise to spread the cheer of this cosy classic.
Creamy. Some sherried fruit with a trailing hint of smoke. Honeyed prunes, custard, and espresso beans.
Sweet, malty, with gentle peat and a mellow, silky texture. Vanilla fudge, peaches and cream, and subtle toasted oak follow.
Ginger, malt, nutty nougat, and maybe a little grapefruit zest.
Sorry guys, I couldn't get anything interesting out of this one. I cant find any hints of smoke, and it came accross as nice but plain dull. Yes, the care invested on making this a smooth drinkable spirit is noticeable and nice it is, but I just can't point into anything remarkable on it. I guess its correct, but I wouldn't buy it again.
One of my favourite day-to-day malt whiskies. The addition of a wee drop of water smooths off any rough edges. Sherry, oak, vanilla custard and gingerbread with a light touch of peat.
A very smooth malt, with a rich flavour.
A classic among 12 year olds. Smooth with a sweet and smokey aftertaste. Good value for a 12 year old. Recommend this to all whisky drinkers....TJ
Smooth and tingling down the throat...worth it with a light evening music
