The Singleton Of Glendullan 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Glendullan is situated in Dufftown, the whisky capital of the world. As one of the busiest whisky epicenters, it is home to some of the greatest Scotch whiskies ever created. Founded in 1898, by William Williams and Sons from Aberdeen, the distillery was actually decreed by King Edward VII in 1902.Like most distilleries, Glendullan has a history of ownership changes and renovations. In 1926, the distillery was bought out by Distillers Company Limited, then switched hands to Scottish Malt Distillers in 1939. By 1962 the distillery was renovated, and only a decade later a new facility was constructed near the original site. In 1985 the original facility was mothballed. Glendullan 2 is also a workhorse, putting out 4 million liters of spirit per year, producing several labels. The distillery itself has official bottlings and has been producing theSingleton brand since 2007. A biolpant, which processes the spent lees, was also opened on-site in 2014.The distillery has 3 wash stills with an impressive capacity of 33,700 liters, and 3 spirit stills with 23,800 liters of capacity. They source their unpeated maltings from Diageos industrial site, and the mashing takes place in a12-ton mash tun.The Singleton brand is actually manufactured in three Scottish whisky distilleries; one of which is Glendullan. This 18 Year expression, along with the younger expressions from the singleton lineup (a 15 and a 12 year), was released in the US in 2016. With its notes of chocolate, banana almond, and honey, this Speyside single malt is matured using mostly ex-bourbon American oak barrels, and bottled at 40 percent ABV. As the most mature expression in the Glendullan stable, its structure shines through and takes center stage, while sweet fruit complements the palate all throughout. This well-balanced character is rounded off by a smooth, dry finish.Get your bottle today!
