Single Cask Distillery Bottling

A sensational release from The Singleton brand. Matured in a single hogshead cask and bottled at 40.6% abv, The Singleton of Dufftown 53 Year Old 1964 Vintage is the first in the whisky brand’s new Paragon of Time Collection. This is a real rarity and a real collectors piece for those looking to add to their collection.

The 53 Year Old will be presented in a crystal decanter and housed in a wooden presentation case, with a piece of the original cask incorporated into the packaging.

The Singleton has also partnered with award-winning artist Cai Zhi Song to celebrate the release by creating a commemorative sculpture called Blossom. It surpasses the brand’s previous oldest release by some way. Previously it was the 40-year-old Glendullan single malt from the whisky’s Forgotten Drop series released in 2018.

The whisky is said to feature ‘scented hand-cream, rose water and exotic tropical and berry fruit’ notes on the nose, with ‘dried figs and a suggestion of toffee’ on the palate.

Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a subtle mahogany undertone.

Nose

An opulent bouquet of scented hand-cream and rose water, bright with exotic tropical fruits and ripe berries. The nose drapes a tactile, floral-soft sweetness—luxuriously graceful and intriguingly refined, inviting closer to the glass.

Palate

Dried figs and a suggestion of toffee, with a soft, luxurious sweetness that lingers on the palate.

Finish

Silky, long finish of dried figs and a whisper of toffee, unfolding into warm oaken spice. Rose-water and delicate fruit lift softly, tapering to a refined velvet afterglow that lingers with quiet elegance.

Dufftown
(DUFF-town) Dufftown is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky distillery in the town of Dufftown, Moray. It was founded in 1895 as Dufftown-Glenlivet in a converted meal mill, with production beginning in 1896. Mackenzie & Co acquired the distillery shortly afterwards, and Arthur Bell & Sons later bought Dufftown in 1933, making its spirit an important part of Bell’s blended Scotch whisky.
