Cut Your Wolf Loose bottles Aberfeldy whisky

A British whisky bar has expanded its Cut Your Wolf Loose line with a new seven-year-old Aberfeldy bottling.

The whisky is the second expression from Brighton-based venue Cut Your Wolf Loose.

Distilled in July 2014, the seven-year-old Aberfeldy whisky was drawn from a single Bourbon, refill hogshead. It sits at 57.7% ABV.

Each bottle is labelled with custom artwork by London-based graffiti artist Tom Blackford. The labels depict a ‘rambunctious’ seagull dressed in ‘informal attire’.

Only 266 bottles of the Aberfeldy Cut Your Wolf Loose whisky were created. Of these, 23 bottles were signed by Blackford and are available alongside a custom print by the artist.

Future bottles are also being planned, as the venue aims to ‘prod at the category’s boundaries’ to attract a more ‘eclectic mix of people’ to the whisky industry.

It said it will also work to continue championing artists and distilleries from around the world.

Last year, Bacardi-owned Aberfeldy partnered with charity the Bee Conservancy to launch a signature cocktail in the on-trade.

Bacardi also appointed a new global malts ambassador to look after its single malt Scotch whisky portfolio: Matthew Cordiner.
