Cadenhead Dufftown-Glenlivet 26 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Situated in the Speyside region of Scotland, the Dufftown Distillery was founded in 1895 by four wine merchants who, together, purchased a stone built saw and meal mill and converted into a distillery. Located near the confluence of the Rivers Dullan and Fiddich, the distillery draws its water from Jock's Well, which is renown for its incredibly pure flavorful spring water (on more than one occasion, nearby distilleries — particularly Mortlach — have been caught attempting to divert water from the well to their own distillery). This Dufftown single malt Scotch whisky was crafted exclusively from malted barley, which was milled and mashed before being fermented in the distillery's wooden washbacks. Following fermentation, the whisky was distilled twice: first through a copper pot wash still and then again through a copper pot spirit still. This single malt was produced during the time Dufftown adopted the Glenlivet moniker. Established in 1842, Cadenhead’s is Scotland’s oldest independent bottler.

Tasting Notes

On the nose; soft citrus and herbs with a decent dose of brothy meatiness. Flavors of spice and tropical fruits that give way to nuts and syrup on the palate. The finish is long and pleasant with nuts, fruits, and brown sugar fading slowly into oak spice.
