An old adage states that “Rome was built on seven hills, but Dufftown stands on seven stills”. Dufftown is one of the pre-eminent whisky towns of Speyside. Its distillery lies on the town’s outskirts near the ancient Mortlach Church.
Tasting Notes:
Enticing aromas of stewed apricot, orange marmalade and lemon curd lure one in. The addition of a little water brings out for gentle baking spice and vibrant green fruity distillate notes.
The palate is wonderfully fat and chewy, throwing off more apricot, plums and tobacco leaf.
There’s a whiff of wood smoke on the finish, along with a touch of wood spice and a mouth-watering, lingering note of fruit jams.
