Glendullan 16 Year Old Flora & Fauna presents the Dufftown distillery at greater maturity than the standard Singleton 12. The extra four years and the Flora & Fauna presentation — without the Singleton branding's commercial constraints — allow more of the distillery's character to show.
Sixteen years suit Glendullan well. The naturally sweet, honeyed spirit develops genuine complexity with the additional maturation. The Flora & Fauna bottling at 43% provides a more characterful experience than the smoother Singleton expression.
Glendullan 16 is a solid Flora & Fauna bottling that demonstrates genuine quality in a distillery usually hidden behind the Singleton brand. The sixteen years add welcome depth.
