Macduff 21 Year Old - Batch 9 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Macduff
Tasting Notes
This 21-year-old single malt from Macduff distillery is a true gem, capturing the essence of time-honored craftsmanship. The nose unveils a delightful interplay of aromas – crystallized ginger, musky oak, and salted caramel, intertwined with lemon peel, barley sugar, and a hint of saddle leather. The palate is a symphony of flavors, with a thick, rich sweetness from dried fruits, cinnamon, vanilla, and treacle setting the stage, while astringent oak, red chili warmth, and baked earth notes add complexity. The finish is a lingering embrace of warming golden barley, toffee apples, and drying oak spice. This independently bottled Batch 9 from That Boutique-y Whisky Company is a vatting of three casks, a hogshead, and a butt, distilled in 1997, offering a truly unique and captivating whisky experience.
