The story behind it

The maker

Founded by the Dewar brothers, John Alexander and Tommy, Aberfeldy was established in the Highlands of Scotland to guarantee a high-quality single malt core for their famous blended whiskies. Today, it stands proudly as a highly decorated single malt brand, renowned for its golden-hued, approachable drams.

How it is made

The Aberfeldy distillery & rickhouse was founded in 1896, drawing its exceptionally pure water from the Pitilie Burn, famously rich in alluvial gold deposits. The distillery continues to employ long fermentation times in Siberian larch washbacks to foster its signature honeyed fruitiness.
