The Singleton of Dufftown 21 Years

This Singleton 21 Years is a rare, long-aged Speyside single malt. It delivers refined complexity and deep, layered flavours. Matured in a mix of refill American and European oak casks, this whisky showcases the richness that only time can bring. The balance between sweet fruit and oak depth is exceptional.

The nose is vibrant yet elegant. Expect aromas of dried mango, orange peel, honeycomb, and a touch of clove. Soft hints of vanilla and nutmeg follow. The palate is smooth, full-bodied, and silky. Flavours of baked apple, golden raisins, and caramelised nuts unfold slowly. Gentle waves of oak, spice, and malted biscuit add warmth and structure.

There’s a richness here, but it’s never heavy. The long ageing process brings harmony between the fruit and wood influences. It’s balanced, mature, and remarkably smooth.

In the mid-palate, notes of fig, gingerbread, and soft leather appear. They deepen the experience without overpowering the whisky’s natural sweetness. The finish is long, warm, and elegant. Hints of dried fruit, cocoa, and light spice linger gracefully. It’s a satisfying end to a refined dram.

Singleton of Dufftown 21 Years is a whisky for special moments. It’s elegant, well-aged, and full of character. A beautiful example of Speyside’s potential with extended ageing.
