Daftmill Summer Batch 2019 Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky 10 Year Old · 2008 Vintage
In stock
Daftmill is a farm distillery. Owned and operated by the Cuthbert family, it only runs in the farm’s quiet periods; mid-summer and winter, sometimes producing as few as 100 casks per year. When not distilling, Francis Cuthbert looks after the estate, growing the malting barley used to make this Lowland whisky.
The barley variety Optic was grown in the South fields and harvested in the last week of August 2006. It was then stored on the farm to be malted in Alloa during the summer of 2007.
The six first fill ex bourbon barrels that make up this bottling were distilled and filled in summer 2008. Casks 056/2008, 058/2008, 060/2008, 062/2008, 065/2008 and 066/2008.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale straw gold with a delicate sun-kissed glow and a whisper of honey.
Nose
A deep vanilla aroma reminiscent of crème brûlée rises immediately, with hints of tinned peaches, a touch of dried cocoa powder, and a delicate grassy note that adds freshness and lift.
Palate
Fresh fruit bursts on the palate—green apples, pears and melon give way to soft peach with a hint of tropical notes; a herbaceous, earthy undertone lingers through the mid-palate.
Finish
Oak returns on the finish, delivering vanilla pods, clove and cinnamon with a touch of melted honey. The warmth lingers, a softly sweet oak with spice that invites another sip.
