Tasting Notes

Aberfeldy's 18 Year Old Red Wine Cask Collection is a captivating fusion of Scotch tradition and Italian flair. Matured for 18 years, this single malt whisky undergoes a final sojourn in red wine casks from Bolgheri, Tuscany, imparting a delightful array of luscious flavors. Upon nosing, you're greeted with layers of cherry – syrupy morellos mingling with juicy fresh cherries, accompanied by oaky vanilla and toasted marzipan notes. The palate unveils a delightful dance of cocoa nibs, soft vanilla, peppery oak spice, and juicy blackberries, with hints of toasted coconut adding a subtle tropical twist. The finish lingers with silky oak and baking spices, leaving a lasting impression of this Highlander's unique character. A true embodiment of Scottish craftsmanship and Italian passion, this whisky is a must-try for those seeking a harmonious blend of rich, red fruit flavors and spicy oak complexity.
