Description
The Singleton Glendullan is a remarkably versatile single malt with a rich history deeply rooted in the picturesque town of Dufftown, Scotland.
As the seventh of the famed distilleries in the region, Glendullan was established in 1897, nestled among the serene Convall Hills and overlooking the gentle flow of the River Dullen.
Renowned for its delicate spirit with a distinctive green apple profile, Glendullan’s onion-shaped stills produce a whisky that captures the essence of its scenic surroundings.
The majority of this exceptional single malt is aged in American oak bourbon barrels, imparting a delightful sweetness and rich nuttiness, while a smaller portion matures in fruity European sherry casks, adding depth and complexity to the final blend.
Under the expert guidance of Master of Malts Keith Law, with 36 years of experience to his credit, the two distinct whiskies are meticulously blended to create The Singleton Glendullan.
This extraordinary expression boasts fresh, complex flavors that are certain to captivate seasoned enthusiasts and entice newcomers with its sheer deliciousness.
The history of Glendullan is as rich as its whisky, with a legacy dating back to its founding in 1897 by William Williams & Sons Ltd.
The distillery’s journey has been marked by significant milestones, from its early success and rumored favor with King Edward VII to mergers, takeovers, and periods of closure during wartime.
Throughout the years, Glendullan has continued to evolve, adapt and innovate, embracing new technologies and practices while staying true to its heritage.
Notably, in 2015, The Singleton of Glendullan unveiled three new expressions as a Global Travel Exclusive: Classic, Double Matured and Master’s Art, signaling the distillery’s commitment to introducing exceptional and diverse offerings to whisky enthusiasts around the world.
The Singleton Glendullan stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Dufftown’s whisky-making tradition.
