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.

Very nice and pleasantly smooth, was expecting more smoke if I’m honest though! Even though it lacks a little depth and the experience is short, I still like it so not overly disappointed... don’t add water, it doesn’t need it, I felt it shortened the finish.
I would agree with some of the other reviewers, this is a whisky that takes a bit of perseverance. On first opening the bottle, I found it quite harsh, but now having left the bottle for a couple of weeks it has opened up nicely. That initial harshness has gone, leaving a much smoother dram, subtle sweetness, fruitcake, honey and vanilla with a hint of peat, nice creamy, malty finish. A whisky that will reward those who stick with it.
Very good and smoke smooth
Dunno what to write exactly. Sipping on and off for the past few weeks, in between bourbons, peaty malts, cheap blends. MoM notes are more less what I am getting, sherry, creamy oily and malty. Sweet arrival, some days harsher on my palette, some days much more smoother. And then it hit me. It is like a good sturdy friend of mine, maybe some days we would like to spend time apart. It is kind of whisky you keep in a back of your cabinet to go back to when you need to remind yourself what tasting whisky is all about. I understand it is not a great or legendary days of yore whisky but I dont care. Get the bottle and taste it by yourself.
one of the most subtile wiskey i have encountered with the taste of wiskeys like the beter Macallan and Glenfiddish who doesn't need the escort of a good coffe and the pure 70+ black chocolate.A real ladykiller for those who want to take a step in the world of pure whiskey .A totally nono for those who love the taste of smoked explosive whiskey.
