An excellent Highland scotch, well-spiced with mellow vanilla notes. It's a complex, peppery scotch that remains easy on the palate and has a lasting impression. Everyone I've shared it with, from seasoned scotch drinkers to those who rarely partake, has enjoyed this Macduff.

Uncertain if this was the 15-year-old or a different one. I had this at the Clan Macduff Hotel; it was a Macduff special, 15 years old, cask strength. A complex aroma with hints of blossoms and caramel, incredibly smooth.
I had a 20-year-old single malt. Incredibly smooth.
