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.

Thin, simple and one dimensional. Good price but this is a dram for entry level scotch drinkers.
Same price as JW black label or Chivas Regal 12yo. The taste is distinct, but a bit too straightforward. A drop of water opens the flavor.
Same price as JW black label and Chivas Regal 12yo, but anyway it's a 12yo single malt and tastes better. The flavor is distinct, but a bit too straightforward. A drop of water will open the flavor. Within the box comes a mould for ice ball, so I tried. With an ice ball you drink too much before knowing it.
It’s a good whiskey for the less experienced tasters. The price value is more than acceptable.
The unique bottle shape of The Singleton of Dufftown is inspired by a traditional hipflask while the colour of the glass reflects the blue flint glass used at the turn of the previous century. We have an original copper hip flask (from Dufftown, where we live) which was used for acquiring whisky. It is the shape of the bottle.
