Tasting Notes:

Producer's Tasting Notes

Appearance: Deep gold, polished mahogany highlights.

Nose: Approachable and rich. First polished wood and nuts (toasted hazelnut) dominate, then rich fruits, both stewed (baked apples) and dried (sweeet dates) take over, with soft brown sugar. Behind this, a stick of liquorice. Mossy. Water brings out a sweeter, more direct Speyside character (citrus fruits, pear drops!). Clean and dense. After a while, warm, dry aromas of pencil shavings or match-sticks.

Body: Smooth. Medium.

Palate: Sweetness and crunchy nuts impress at first, then there's a smooth, fruity Speyside richness to enjoy. Firm, with a balancing sweetness: hints of blackcurrant fruit, brown sugar and espresso coffee. Warming and pleasant. With water, still a pleasant texture. Light sweetness, then chewy and balanced by a light acidity, with a good spread of flavours mid-palate.

Finish: Medium to long. Elegantly drying and crisp; then a sweetly nutty delayed warmth, which lingers pleasantly.

Brand Info:

Dufftown

With a capacity of over 4 million litres per year, Dufftown is currently the largest of Diageo's 27 working distilleries, although this will change once the Roseisle complex comes online later in 2009. The distillery was founded in 1895/6 by the blender Peter Mackenzie in partnership with Richard Stackpole and John Symon. Symon owned the sawmill and mealmill whose buildings were converted into the distillery. Peter Mackenzie (who also owned Blair Athol) bought out his partners in 1898 and moved to Edinburgh, changing the company's name to P Mackenzie Distillers Ltd.
