Founded in 1895 in the Speyside region, the Dufftown distillery is known for its rich history and idyllic location in the “Garden of Scotland”. This traditional distillery has played a significant role in whisky production over the years.
The Singleton of Glen Ord 18 Years Old Special Release is a whisky from Diageo’s 2019 Special Release range, which is known for its particularly intense cask strength bottlings. This series stands out for its unadulterated quality, as each whisky is bottled straight from the cask without dilution, which preserves its original character.
The Singleton is matured in freshly burnt American oak hogshead casks, which gives it a special depth and complexity. This cask maturation not only gives the whisky its characteristic spiciness, but also an impressive richness that is complemented by vibrant flavours. The 18-year-old single malt delights with a lively flavour profile that is a real treat for experienced whisky connoisseurs and collectors alike.

For a special touch, this exquisite whisky can also be used in a luxurious whisky cocktail, such as an Old Fashioned, which emphasises and elegantly complements its complex flavours.
