Aberfeldy Distillery Launches 24-Year-Old White Port Cask Single Malt
Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery announced the launch of its latest distillery exclusive, ABERFELDY 24-Year-Old White Port Double Cask Finish Single Malt Whisky.
The latest addition to the distillery’s Exceptional Cask Series, this rare release brings together two places united by a shared dedication to craft.
Since 1898, ABERFELDY has produced whisky in the heart of Scotland, using time-honoured techniques passed down through generations, while the steep terraced vineyards of the Douro Valley have long been celebrated for producing some of the world’s most distinctive fortified wines.
In this limited-edition release, White Port casks lend a distinctive layer of character to ABERFELDY’s signature honeyed style. The result is a bright and elegant expression.
“The choice of White Port casks was a deliberate one,” Stephanie Macleod, Malt Master at ABERFELDY, said in a news release. “Port cask maturation is often known for bringing a lively character to whisky, but White Port offers something particularly fresh and vibrant. Rich in notes of citrus peel, stone fruits and delicate nuttiness, the casks complement rather than overpower ABERFELDY’s signature honeyed style, creating an expression that feels bright, elegant and perfectly suited to the season.
“With this release, we wanted to capture something unexpected: a whisky that retains the depth and refinement expected of a 24-Year-Old Single Malt while introducing a brighter, more expressive character through the White Port finish. It is a whisky that transports you, offering a taste of Portugal through the lens of ABERFELDY craftsmanship.”
The launch also reflects ABERFELDY’s continued exploration of wine cask finishing, building on a portfolio of expressions that demonstrate how carefully chosen wine casks can enhance and elevate the distillery’s celebrated honeyed character. From the rich influence of Tuscan red wine casks to the brighter, fruit-led notes imparted by Cadillac French wine casks, these releases showcase the versatility and creativity at the heart of the distillery’s whisky-making philosophy.
With only 252 bottles available, ABERFELDY 24-Year-Old White Port Double Cask can be purchased exclusively from Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery and its online store from July 7th, at an RRP of £350. Visitors to the distillery can also enjoy drams at the Distillery Bar throughout the summer for £13.
