Tasting Notes

Nose

Rich sherry, dried fruit, polished oak. Eighteen years create genuine maturity. Beneath the sherry, honey, dark chocolate and a gentle warmth. Distinguished.

Palate

Sherried and mature — dried fruit, dark chocolate, a gentle oak warmth. Eighteen years provide real depth. Mid-palate brings toffee, a gentle spice and a composed sweetness. Despite 40%, the quality shows.

Finish

Long, with sherry warmth and mature oak.

The Singleton of Dufftown 18 Year Old is the most mature expression in the European Singleton range. Eighteen years of maturation — with significant sherry cask influence — produce a Speyside malt of genuine distinction.

At eighteen years, the Singleton brand reaches its fullest potential. The sherry richness is well-developed, the oak maturity genuine, and the underlying Dufftown spirit provides a solid foundation. At 40%, it could benefit from more strength, but the quality is beyond question.

Singleton of Dufftown 18 is a mature, sherried Speyside of genuine quality at a competitive price. The eighteen years of aging provide the depth needed to sustain serious interest.
