From Speyside, Scotland, this 17-year-old Miltonduff single malt from Saltire Rare Malt is drawn from a single cask (#900573) and matured in a second-fill European oak barrel. Bottled at 48% ABV, it showcases a refined balance shaped by time and wood, using 100% malted barley in traditional Scotch whisky production.
The palate opens with soft orchard fruit, honeyed malt, and gentle spice, layered with dried fruit and toasted oak from its European cask influence. Subtle vanilla and nutty warmth linger on the finish. Best enjoyed neat to appreciate its depth, or with a few drops of water to unlock its full aromatic character.
