The Signatory Vintage Miltonduff 2015 Aged 8 Years 100 Proof #24 is a Speyside single malt that offers a glimpse into the often overlooked character of Miltonduff Distillery. While Miltonduff primarily produces whisky for blends, this independent bottling by Signatory Vintage allows whisky enthusiasts to appreciate the distillery’s unique profile in its single malt form.

Distilled in 2015 and bottled in 2024, this whisky matured for 8 years in a combination of bourbon barrels. Signatory Vintage, known for its diverse selection of single malts and its dedication to showcasing the unique character of each cask, bottled this Miltonduff at 100 proof (57.1% alc/vol). This higher strength preserves the whisky’s intensity and allows its flavours to shine through.

Miltonduff is known for producing a light and fruity spirit, and this expression is no exception. The bourbon cask maturation adds layers of vanilla, honey, and spice, complementing the distillery’s natural sweetness and creating a balanced and complex flavour profile.
