Aberfeldy 15 Years Cadillac Wine Cask Finish [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Highland single malt that bridges Scottish tradition with French finesse?

The Aberfeldy 15 Years Cadillac Wine Cask Finish represents a masterful collaboration between Highland craftsmanship and Bordeaux elegance. This limited edition expression from the Exceptional Casks Series showcases what happens when traditional Scottish maturation meets the sophistication of Sémillon wine casks from France’s prestigious Entre-deux-Mers region. Like the complexity found in The Balvenie 14 Years Caribbean Cask, this innovative finishing technique creates layers of flavor that traditional aging alone cannot achieve.
