Dufftown

Dufftown Distillery was established in 1895 on the site of Pittyvaich corn mill on the Dullan Water just to the south of Dufftown and in the heart of Scotland’s Speyside whisky region. Despite a cramped situation Dufftown Distillery’s six stills produce around six million litres of alcohol per year making it a top ten Scottish malt distillery in terms of output. Very little emerges as single malt since most flows into Bell’s blends. Dufftown Distillery participates in the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival.

Nose: Sweet and clean – carrying rind of citrus fruit, barley sugar & soft tobacco tones.
Palate: That syrupy, sweet impact continues – plus Malt, spices and a mixed nuts selection.
Finish: Warmingly spiced with more crunchy barley sugar & juicy barley quality.
