Exceptionally smooth and rich.
Over half of Scotland's malt whisky distilleries are found on Speyside, and Dufftown distillery is at the centre of this fertile region, caught between mountains, rivers and sea. A delicious 18 year old Speyside malt from the Duff town distillery, the Singleton exudes oodles of creamy, malty flavour. This complex and mature Single Malt has deep amber appearance with most attractive and good texture. Perfect balance between soft, ripe apple and blackberry fruit and spicy dryness. Soft, inviting, dry and autumnal nose. Light to medium body, softly coating the tongue. Its sweet autumn fruits are perfectly balanced by a nutty, spicy dryness. On the palate dark toffee and gentle mint, rhubarb and apple juice. Dries, with a rich, silky cocoa bitterness. To finish, sweetness softly introduces a longer, drying oakiness. Stewed-fruit freshness. Wood-smoke spiced with faint black pepper. With an intense sweet toffee, vanilla and stewed autumn fruit flavours, The Singleton of Dufftown 18 Year Old is delicious in a tumbler glass, on its own or with ice. A finely structured, smooth, rich whisky. The perfect gift for those looking to explore Speyside single malt whiskies known for their rich and smooth flavour.

A bit of history
Founded in the 19th century, Dufftown is located at the heart of the Speyside region of Scotch Whisky production. In our early years, the water from Jock’s Well, an artesian spring upstream, had been diverted to rivals at night a number of times. We are proud to still use this pure water today.
