Aberfeldy 24 Year Old Exceptional Cask Series Scotch Whisky

Aberfeldy 24 Year Old is part of the Exceptional Cask series from Bacardi’s Last Great Malts programme — a superlative bottling selected by Malt Master Stephanie Macleod from the John Dewar’s & Sons cask inventory, matured in first fill Sherry Butt casks, presenting subtle, savoury herbal and spice notes with hints of smoke from the 24-year Perthshire Highland maturation in first-fill sherry butts, bottled in small quantities that will not be available again once sold out.

Aberfeldy Distillery in Aberfeldy, Perthshire draws its water from the Pitilie Burn — historically famed for its gold deposits, hence the ‘Golden Dram’ nickname. The Exceptional Cask series presents rare and specifically selected casks from Aberfeldy’s warehouse inventory. The 24 Year Old in first-fill sherry butts demonstrates a distinctly different and more savoury, complex character than the standard range’s honeyed sweetness.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the 24 Year Sherry Butt differ from the 19 Year Exceptional Cask?
