Product details

The Singleton of Dufftown 15 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is driven by our love and passion for making a perfectly balanced, smooth yet rich whisky. That is why every drop in this bottle is a labour of love. The only way to craft a whisky as lush as this is to put your heart and soul into it. From gently malting flavourful barley to painstakingly balancing different casks for ultimate smoothness, we take joy in every part of the journey. The result is in your hand, an award-winning whisky known for being delicious from the very first sip.

Tasting notes

Slightly spicy nosefeel and drying, overall. Toffee apples. Hints of honeycomb balanced by remnants of youthful zestiness - linseed oil and scented tea. Becomes fruitier: ripe autumn fruits combined with red berry sharpness. Malt and cereal notes. Some golden syrup sweetness. Reassuringly well balanced. Adding water brings up a waxier note initially, with traces of sweet chestnut and glace angelica, and then a whiff of smoke or charred wood. Without water, the flavour is sweet to start then drying in the finish. Warming, light and smooth; tending to delicate. Malty and oaty base notes. Fresh fruit salad, with spicy and floral top notes. With water added there’s a pleasant mouthfeel. Some sweetness, though the overall effect remains balanced and dry.

RISE OF SINGLETON

Glendullan is founded by William Williams & Sons Ltd., blenders from Aberdeen, and is the last of seven distilleries to be built in Dufftown. It shares a private railway siding with nearby Mortlach and all the machinery is driven by an overshot water wheel powered by water from the River Fiddich. William Innes (b.1866) dies in Dufftown aged 89. Innes was almost certainly the first distillery manager at Glendullan and may have worked there until his retirement. He and his wife are recorded as living at Glendullan House in the 1901 and 1911 censuses, and she dies there in 1917. In 1985 the Old Glendullan buildings on the distillery site are decommissioned, though they remain in use as a workshop. Around 2015 the Singleton of Glendullan launches three new expressions as a Global Travel Exclusive: Classic, Double Matured and Master’s Art.
