SingletonofDufftown18YearOld(700mL)

<p>A big fish in a big pond.</p><p>With producers such as Glenfiddich and Balvenie calling the town home, <em>Dufftown</em> is often described as the capital of Scotch Whisky. Too often though we forget that Dufftown is the name of a distillery in its own right. Nestled<em> in the heart of the Scotch Whisky capital</em>, Dufftown distillery has been creating sweet and fruity malt classics that have helped make Speyside one of the most famous Whisky-producing regions in the world. By no means however is this the case of a small fish in a big pond. Dufftown is <em>the third biggest distillery owned by Diageo </em>and a large volume of their malts contribute to popular Whisky blends such as Johnnie Walker.</p><p>Luckily the Singleton branding has allowed the single malt expressions of Dufftown to survive and we have managed to get our hands on some <em>exclusive single malt varieties</em> from the distillery. This<em> 18 year-old</em> has built on the success of its younger 12 and 15 year-old counterparts to create a malty Speyside classic packed with juicy fruit and a spicy finish. Given the history of the distillery this is a very reasonably priced dram and <em>one of the oldest Dufftown expressions</em> you can easily get your hands on. You don’t need to be a mathematician to know that a Scotch using a 50/50 mixture of European and American oak will be extremely well-balanced so put down your calculator and join us for a<em> dram of a Dufftown classic</em>.</p>
