The Singleton
The Singleton of Glendullan 12 Year Old, 750ml
Smooth, sweet, richly fruity and rounded; just the right balance of complexity with plenty of rich, sweet flavour and a clean finish.
Serving Suggestion: Best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water.
Appearance
Old gold.
Body
Light to medium body.
Nose
Clean and complex; a rich fruitiness (juicy red fruits and raisins, with citrus and boiled fruit sweets underpinning all) that suggests an older malt. Some soft fragrant notes too; scented leather, subtle sandalwood and vanilla. Adding water opens up the classic Speyside fruit-sweet aromas. Fresh, light and clean.
Palate
Fresh and easy to drink; spicy, then soft and pleasantly sweet throughout, with no rough edges. Fruity, with citrus and raisins. Vanilla and a hint of honey, with just a subtle trace of wood; a maple-syrup sweetness. Nutty too. A good spread of flavours. Reduced, still sweet, now attractively balanced.
Finish
Short, creamy-smooth and slightly drying; a charming hint of blackcurrant lingers.
