Detailed Description
An outstanding and rare 1-Litre vintage bottle of Dufftown-Glenlivet 12 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, produced by Arthur Bell & Sons Ltd. at the Dufftown Distillery in Speyside, Scotland.
During the mid-to-late 20th century, Dufftown malt served as the foundational spine for Bell’s blended scotch. Bottlings from this era famously carried the hyphenated title "Dufftown-Glenlivet", reflecting the historical regional naming traditions of the Speyside valley.
Presented in Dufftown’s iconic retro dumpy bottle with its classic cream-and-gold label, this 1-Litre (100 cl) format was primarily crafted for international export and duty-free markets during the 1970s and 1980s. Matured in traditional oak casks, old-style Dufftown distillations from this period are renowned among whisky enthusiasts for their textural richness, honeyed maltiness, and deep nutty complexity.
In the glass, it shows a bright golden-amber hue. The nose opens with inviting aromas of honeyed cereal, beeswax, toasted hazelnuts, yellow plum, and light floral heather. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied, mouth-filling, and smooth, delivering flavors of rich malted barley, soft oak spice, dried orchard fruits, and subtle butterscotch, leading into a long, satisfyingly dry and warm finish.
