The Singleton of Dufftown 18 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
The Singleton of Dufftown 18 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a beautifully matured expression that takes the distillery's signature fruity style and adds incredible depth and richness. Having spent nearly two decades resting in a carefully chosen combination of American and European oak casks, this release moves away from the lighter, fresh fruit notes of its younger siblings. Instead, it offers a deeply comforting, autumnal profile that feels exceptionally smooth and full-bodied on the palate. On the nose, expect an inviting blend of stewed orchard fruits, toasted walnuts, and sweet vanilla pod. As you take a sip, the texture is wonderfully velvety, releasing rich layers of baked apple, dark caramel, and a gentle dusting of warming cinnamon spice. The finish is remarkably long, lingering beautifully with a final hit of dark berry fruit and a subtle, toasted oak sweetness. It is a phenomenal dram to enjoy slowly after a hearty evening meal. Serve it neat alongside a classic sticky toffee pudding, a slice of rich fruitcake, or simply on its own as you unwind at the end of the day.
