The Beast of Duffton lives up to its moniker with this powerful single malt Scotch whisky. The 13-year-old was matured primarily in refill ex-bourbon casks before a brief period of ageing in new oak casks. The result is a full-bodied profile true to the distillery's character. This comes with a chewy texture, toffee and wood spice.
Nose
Cut grass, marmalade, oak spice
Palate
Floral notes, marmalade, apples
Finish
Toffee, petrichor
Fresh cut grass and a tart marmalade note define the nose. The palate is creamy with floral detail before turning savoury. The finish is long, complex and older than the age statement suggests, with firm Speyside power.
