Dumbarton 22 Year Old 1996 (Master of Malt)
The Lowland-based Dumbarton distillery was founded in 1936 by legendary distiller Hiram Walker to produce grain whisky reserves for Ballantine's blended whisky. The distillery was famously home to a gaggle of around 100 Chinese white geese, introduced by Walker to protect it from intruders, it became known as the 'Scotch Watch'! Sadly, Dumbarton closed for good in 2002, but its legacy lives on in independent bottlings, like this one, and the remaining geese were retired, joining an existing flock at Glasgow Green. This 1996 vintage single grain Scotch, matured for 22 years in a refill barrel before joining our own exclusive Master of Malt collection. A release of 95 bottles.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Rich layers of sticky treacle toffee, forest fruits, and coffee grounds lead to meaty notes of honey-glazed ham, and oily smoked nuts, with leathery old oak nestling beneath.
Palate
Dark chocolate and flamed orange peels are joined by sticky notes of dates and prunes. Notes of damp oak and woody spice rest in the depths, backed by sweet notes of peanut brittle.
Finish
Wholemeal loaf with thick-cut marmalade, honey, and mellow old oak spice.
