Aberfeldy distillery was founded in 1896 by John Dewar & Sons and is located in the Highland town of the same name. Its spirit plays a central role in Dewar's blended Scotch whiskies, where it has
been a key component of the blends for generations.
Designed by renowned distillery architect Charles Doig, Aberfeldy draws its water from the Pitilie Burn, a water source associated with gold panning.
Often referred to as the ‘golden dram’ the whisky is characterised by fruity notes, honeyed sweetness and subtle spice. Aberfeldy's spirit is well suited to ex-bourbon maturation, enhancing its natural honeyed sweetness while developing notes of vanilla and creamy richness. It also possesses sufficient weight to pair successfully with select sherry casks, adding further richness.
