- Description
- Macduff's 1995 distillation was split between two hogshead casks for 20 years before bottling at cask strength by Signatory in June 2015, producing 479 bottles of Highland single malt. The extended wood contact has developed dried fruit, heather, and subtle spice complexity characteristic of the region's middle style. The texture is robust and warming, with layers of oak, stone fruit, and lingering spice across a substantial finish. A robust dram for whiskey drinkers who value cask integrity and maturity.
