About this bottle
Daftmill presents a limited edition vintage bottling from its Lowlands farm estate distillery. The barley for this single malt is grown on the property, and distillation takes place when farming activities are not in progress. This particular expression was distilled between January and July of 2010. After maturing for 12 years in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, 15 barrels were selected, resulting in 2,400 bottles. This bottling is notable as the first cask strength offering from the distillery made available in the United States. It has been bottled at 58.7% ABV and will be released in May 2024 with a suggested retail price of $324.99.
