Aberfeldy
Region: Highlands
District: Midlands
Aberfeldy Distillery was constructed
somewhere around 1896-97, depending on your source, but opened
for production in 1898. Aberfeldy is located in the rasberry-growing
region of Scotland and overlooks the Tay Valley. The red squirrel
on the label is inspired by the beautiful woodland setting
that borders the distillery and is home to a colony of rare
red squirrels. The distillery has been in continuous production
since its inception, except for a short period during World
War II.
