Detailed Description

A 10-year-old single cask single malt distilled at Macduff in 2011. It joins indie bottlers Brave New Spirits' Cask Noir series of bottling with a film-inspired spin. This Highland whisky - titled 'The Thane of Fife' - matured in a first fill PX sherry hogshead until it was bottled in 2022, at cask strength and without chill filtration or additional colour.

Macduff 10 Year Old 2011 - Cask Noir (Brave New Spirits) | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Brown sugar and caramel here, brownies with dark cherries. Toasted tea cakes, dates, mixed berry strudel.

Palate: Palate is like the nose, darker fruits, brown sugar, brownies, chocolate digestives, the cap gun caps are here too, and the spices build rather nicely, becoming chest warming now.

Finish: Medium in length, again sweet and spicy, lots of stewed dark fruits, cigar leaves, mince pie filling.

Distillery Information

In 1958, the Macduff distillery was founded opposite Banff, by a syndicate under the name of Macduff Distillers Ltd, the group included George Crawford, Brodie Hepburn, James Stirret and Morty Dyke. A couple of years later production commenced and, over the course of the 1960s, further stills were installed, bringing the total to four. The Macduff distillery draws its waters from the Gelly Burn and lies on the east bank of the River Deveron in Banffshire. During the 1960s, Scotch whisky exportation increased threefold. In 1972, William Lawson Distillers acquired the distillery and eight years later they, in turn, were acquired by Martini Rossi. During William Lawson’s tenure, they established Macduff as a component of the William Lawson blend, a very popular Scotch whisky which sells in excess of fifteen million bottles yearly. Indeed, Macduff whisky has long since been used as a blending product. Despite this, Macduff is still bottled as a single malt, though sometimes under the name Glen Deveron. Just fewer than half a million bottles of single malt whisky are released from the distillery each year and the majority are exported to France. In 1990, a further still was added, bringing the total to five. Five is a rather unusual number of stills, indeed there is only one other distillery with a combination of two wash and three spirit stills, namely the Talisker distillery on the Isle of Skye. The Macduff distillery is currently under Bacardi ownership following their acquisition of Martini Rossi in 1992. Bacardi subsequently transferred the distillery to John Dewar and Sons.
