The Aberfeldy 12yo has good fruit, barley, heather/ lantana and a touch of smoke on the nose. Rich accelerating intensity on the palate. It starts off quite light, then builds in intensity through the palate to end in a drying finish, inviting a second sip. That lovely rich vanilla and toffee are complimented by savoury herbaceousness and that lovely dry finish.
Nose: Beautifully intense malt with a cidery-apple fruitiness. Gentle oak and honey round off superbly.
Palate: Fresh, almost crisp mouthfeel with outstanding sweet maltiness and an almost Irish pot-still firm fruitiness. Mouthwatering.
Finish: Softly spiced with a long, rich malt follow-through. Comment: Really outstanding example of massively complex, classy but undiscovered malt.
