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. Or how about a signature Singleton serve?
Reach for the Peach
45ml of The Singleton
30ml of peach iced tea
90ml of soda water
Optional: 2 dashes of absinthe
Build all ingredients in an ice-filled Highball glass, give it a good stir, and garnish with a twist of lemon zest.
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.
when i die, i want to be embalmed with this whiskey, in fact, just let me have my final rest in one of the cask's. this is the best i ever had.
I cautiously purchased two bottles, When I tasted I realized I should have bought more than two. This drinks so easily, just slips down the throat like honey.. a bottle doesn't last long.. especially if you've a friend who likes single malts too !
Excellent, smooth tasting with a multitude of flavours and tastes.I'm an old malt "hand" but it is an very good whiskey for new fans.
Very smooth, lovely balanced indeed. Got it as a present from my colleagues. All I can say is that I should have tried it years ago. Absolutely recommend it. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
Opened it up on Christmas and enjoyed a finger. Smooth and delicious without any oily or petrol notes.
