Daftmill 2008 (Summer Release)

Description

Daftmill 2008 Summer Release Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (70cl / 46%)

Operating as a true farm distillery since 2005, Daftmill is owned and run by the Cuthbert family. The distillery only operates during the quieter seasons at the farm – mid-summer and winter – meaning that production can sometimes be as limited as 100 casks per year.

The nose of this 2008 is initially quite floral and slightly spiced, somewhat drier than the 2006 whiskies Daftmill released in 2018. With a little time in the glass, the aromas develop into stewed apple and cinnamon, with some buttery shortbread notes building. The palate offers more spiced apple, but with a pleasant herbal note on the mid-palate. A touch of water brings out some fresh baked sponge cake, a slight grassiness and notes of tinned peach. A long finish balances waves of spice with vanilla and fresh fruit. A very exciting first glimpse of the 2008 vintage from Daftmill.
