The Scottish Borders has a beautiful coastline with charming coastal villages and harbours.

From many of the local restaurants, visitors can watch crabs and langoustines being landed by the fishermen and delivered directly to the restaurant doors. Treat yourself to fresh seafood from award-winning fishmongers on the harbourside, and smoked delicacies from traditional smokeries. Explore the picturesque villages of St Abbs and Coldingham and further inland, where many restaurants are supplied daily from Eyemouth.

Whisky Vlog Video #8: Aberfeldy 12

Mon, 02 Nov 2015 16:28:04 +0000

A grassy, vegetal malt from the Dewars stable. Unfortunately, I think this one suffers from overdilution to 40% and the chill-filtration process and could be so much more than it is. That said, it's certainly approachable and pleasant enough.

12 Year Aberfeldy Whisky Review Last Great Malts. Scotch Test Dummies

Mon, 02 Nov 2015 16:28:04 +0000

This Aberfeldy Bottle is part of a two bottle boxed set from Dewar's called The Last Great Malts: Vol 1.

Beside a distillery called Aberfeldy runs a stream called The Pitilie Burn. Now this is no ordinary stream. The water is cold, pure and rich with deposits of real gold. The Distillery uses that water to create a single malt unlike any other. It's been this way since 1898. Why mess with perfection?

Aberfeldy's time-tested production process creates a light, pure single malt with hints of honey. They distill the liquid in copper pots, handmade by the same family for over a century, then age it to perfection. Pour yourself a dram, take a sip and experience pure brilliance.

The Nose:
Sweet like spun sugar (cotton candy) with hints of fruit.

Tasting Notes:
Medium-bodied, rounded and syrupy. Lively fresh fruit flavors, fudge, cocoa powder and the merest whisper of peat.

Drink Strategy:
Serve neat in a Glencairn glass.

Watch our review of Graigellachie, the second bottle in the set here:

The Team’s Visit To Aberfeldy Distillery, Scotland

Mon, 02 Nov 2015 16:28:04 +0000

Watch how Dewar’s ’ top partners from Lebanon lived the True Scotch experience at Aberfeldy Distillery, the home of Dewar's.

Upon arrival, the participants enjoyed a tour of the Heritage Exhibition, Distillery and Warehouse during which they were introduced to the history of the brand and given tips on blending & mixology. Following the induction, the participants got a chance to mix blends and build a cask.

To further understand the culture from which world’s finest whisky came from, the trip wouldn't have been complete without traditional Scottish meals and an adventurous safari through the highland.
