2) Try The Singleton of Dufftown 21 Year Old and 25 Year Old
Using a combination of American and European oak casks, The Singleton of Dufftown that originates from the Speyside region is sweet and rounded in nature. To create The Singleton of Dufftown 21 Year Old, only one of 20,000 casks of The Singleton maturing whisky stock is chosen. You’ll get a hint of burnt orange, treacle toffee, boiled fruit sweets, and berry fruits.
With the additional four years of maturation, The Singleton of Dufftown 25 Year Old has a light orange gold colour and a stronger tropical fruit scent on the nose. Both variants of the single malt whiskies contain ABV (alcohol by volume) of 43 per cent.
