A straightforward, nutty and malty single malt from Speyside, the Singleton of Dufftown was released to replace the Singleton of Auchroisk. It’s aged in a high proportion of European oak casks.
If you're looking to use this little stunner in a cocktail, then you could do a lot worse than making a classic Highball. You can find a recipe for one right here.
Malty with cereal/barley sweetness, buttery toast, wood shavings, hay and walnut.
Orange zest spiciness perks up a malty core of nuts, oak and toffee, hints of cut grass.
Oaky, rich with good length, some fruit lingers.

Like many others I didn’t like this one at all. It thin, a bit harsh and absolutely uninteresting dram. It resembles the cheap scotch blends a reminded me why I stoped drinking them. Here in Canada it priced similarly to other ‘entry level’ singles which are by any parameter better then this. I wouldn’t recommend it to any one. There is nothing there for the experienced drinkers and the newbies won’t find anything new or distinctive that would draw them into the wonderful world of single malts.
Hand sanitiser should be the vocation of this distillery. I enjoy single malts for the character; this has none. No flavour, no nose, no personality. It is inoffensive, but pretty much pure alcohol in pure water. I was given a bottle of this. Finally got around to opening it, and, for the first time in my life, poured it down the drain. There is no other use for it.
No nose no palate no finish. Will use this as mixer, it’s not worth the price this shouldn’t cost more than JW Red Label, which is better than this.
Being Scottish I’m trying to get into malt whisky. Bought the Singleton today as it was on offer at less than £18 in Bulgaria, with 2 glasses. This is one of the most enjoyable malts I’ve tried. So smooth and easy to drink. My favourite so far!
New scotch drinker here, not a scotch snob at all. This one seems a very nice intro for me, as it’s smooth and malty scotch that doesn’t seem too complex. I’m enjoying it quite a bit. Just straight with an ice cube. US $60 at 7-Eleven in Bangkok. Tax on imported spirits and wine is outrageous here!
