Dufftown Heritage Old & Rare Whisky 44 Year Old · 1975 Vintage 70cl · 41.8% ABV

This elegant and complex whisky from Dufftown, the heart of Speyside, is a 1975 vintage bottled by Hunter Laing at 44 years old for the Old & Rare range and is one of only 239 bottles ever produced. The long maturation has mellowed the spirit, creating a smooth, easy-drinking dram with rich orchard and citrus fruits, balanced by soft sweetness and lingering oak spice.
