Miltonduff 10 Years Discovery – Gordon & MacPhail 3 cl. (Tasting Sample) 43%
Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Miltonduff 10 Years Discovery from Gordon & MacPhail is a classic Speyside single malt, bottled as part of the Discovery range – created as an easy introduction to the house style. The whisky is 10 years old, bottled at 43%, and sits in the richer, fruit- and sherry-driven end of the flavour spectrum, where sweet malt and cask spice both play a clear role.
Style and character Miltonduff is known for a soft, fruity and creamy spirit character, and in this 10-year-old Discovery edition it is wrapped in warm notes from sherry casks. The result is a rounded and approachable dram that still has enough depth for the experienced whisky drinker.
