Gold Medal winner at the San Francisco World Spirits competition 2019
Even the most ardent whisky connoisseurs amongst you could be forgiven for not recognising The Deveron name as a single malt, that is because the Macduff Distillery owners John Dewar & Co have rebranded from Glen Deveron and launched a new range of expressions under The Deveron name.
This is the first time in the distillery's history that there has been a range of expressions available at any one time from the the Macduff distillery.
A 10yo,12yo and 18 year old were released and there was even talk of a Deveron 25 year old when the plans for a new Deveron whisky range was unveiled, no sign of it yet so for the time being this new 18 year old sits at the top of the new The Deveron domestic market range.
Matured in a combination of Spanish sherry and American ex-bourbon oak casks, mainly hogsheads, it has been bottled at 40% ABV. Similar to the other bottlings in the new range, The Deveron 18 year old packaging has a subtle northern Scotland maritime coastal community look and feel to it.
This has had a lovely quality sherry oak influence which makes this malt. A shorter finish than expected which lost it a few points but still an enjoyable dram, released by Dewar's under the "Last Great Malts of Scotland" banner.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep golden amber with coppery highlights and a hint of mahogany.
Nose
A warm bouquet of honey and toffee, with dried sherried fruits and a nutty depth, subtle and inviting, finished by a delicate kiss of oak.
Palate
Medium-bodied and smooth on entry, honeyed sweetness leads the way with vanilla, a touch of burnt raisins and ripe plum. Nutty, tobacco notes mingle with tangy orange, toffee apple and pear, finishing with a hint of late black treacle sugar.
Finish
A short, honey-sweet finish draped in oak, with a tangy orange note that fades quickly, leaving a drying nuttiness.
