- Description
- James Eadie's independently bottled Dufftown spent 13 years entirely in first-fill bourbon barrels, allowing the distillery's orchard fruit and floral notes to develop without heavy wood influence. The result is a clean, spirit-forward expression that showcases Dufftown's refined Speyside character at natural strength. A straightforward choice for those who prefer bourbon cask maturation and want the distillery unadorned.
