Aberfeldy: October’s Whiskey of the Month at Eight Lounge
As the fall season settles in, there’s no better time to cozy up with a rich and warming glass of whiskey. This October, Eight Lounge is proud to present Aberfeldy as our featured Whiskey of the Month. Known for its honeyed richness and layered complexity, Aberfeldy offers a range of age statements that are sure to captivate both novice whiskey drinkers and seasoned aficionados alike. At Eight Lounge, a luxurious escape in the heart of Las Vegas, we invite you to explore the 12, 16, and 21-year-old expressions of Aberfeldy in our elegant setting.
Aberfeldy Distillery, nestled in the Highlands of Scotland, has been crafting fine single malt whiskies since 1898. With its water sourced from the Pitilie Burn, famous for its purity and gold deposits, Aberfeldy whiskies are known for their distinctive character—delicate yet complex, sweet with layers of malt and spices.
At Eight Lounge, a space where elegance meets comfort, we believe that a great cigar pairs perfectly with a distinguished spirit. Aberfeldy, with its heritage and exquisite flavor profile, aligns seamlessly with our mission to provide a luxurious, unforgettable experience.
Aberfeldy 12 Year Old: A Perfect Introduction
The Aberfeldy 12-Year-Old is the ideal gateway into the brand’s signature style. This expression opens with a nose of honey, dried fruit, and a subtle hint of smoke. The palate brings more honey, with notes of vanilla, spice, and a touch of citrus, balanced by a smooth finish. It’s an approachable yet satisfying dram, perfect for both whiskey novices and those looking for an easygoing sip.
At Eight Lounge, we recommend pairing the Aberfeldy 12-Year-Old with a mild or medium-bodied cigar, allowing the sweetness of the whiskey to complement the flavors of the tobacco.
Aberfeldy 16 Year Old: Rich and Sophisticated
For those who prefer something with a little more depth, the Aberfeldy 16-Year-Old provides a richer experience. Matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks, this whiskey is fuller on the palate, offering layers of dried fruit, toffee, and a touch of oak. The sherry influence imparts a nutty richness, making each sip a journey of indulgence.
This expression shines when paired with a medium-bodied cigar, where the interplay of fruit and spice from both the whiskey and the smoke creates a truly luxurious experience at Eight Lounge.
Aberfeldy 21 Year Old: The Pinnacle of Elegance
For the true connoisseur, the Aberfeldy 21-Year-Old represents the pinnacle of the distillery’s craft. This aged masterpiece is a symphony of flavors, from deep honey and creamy vanilla to lush dried fruits and a touch of dark chocolate. The longer maturation adds layers of complexity, with oak and spice weaving through the palate, ending in a long, warming finish.
At Eight Lounge, we suggest enjoying this rare expression with one of our more full-bodied cigars, allowing the depth of the whiskey to shine against the richness of the smoke. The 21-Year-Old Aberfeldy is the ultimate pairing for a special evening in our luxurious cigar lounge.
