Appearance: It’s a hefty bottle, made from an appealing jade-green glass in a wide, satisfyingly grabbable flask shape. In the glass, the whisky glows like a bright copper penny.
Nose: A nice balance of fruit and malt greets the nose, with the fruit tending towards the lighter side – red plum and banana, mostly, with some strawberry in the mix for good measure. There’s also warm canvas, like waking up in one of those old-school military surplus tents on a late summer morning, plus a slight whiff of sulphure, some dark salted toffee, and a dollop of pool water.
Palate: The palate is full-bodied, with a base of honey-drizzled grain building to a gentle sweet fruit crescendo, replete with fresh orange peel, white grape, and dried figs. There’s something about this that reminds me a lot of fortified wine—Vin Santo, perhaps?—with a raisinated, slightly nutty quality. That richness thins out to a lean finish, leaving a slightly bitter, almost camphor-like aftertaste.
At 80 proof, this one doesn’t really linger, but it’s a tough whisky to quarrel with. Moderately rich without being overly sweet, it’s also relatively light but with a slightly grippy finish. Understated but not generic, The Singleton of Glendullan 15-year-old is a very pleasant dram that will really hit the spot for Speyside fans.
"The U.S. Singleton comes from Glendullan, a distillery that makes a sweet, light spirit. Here, a percentage has been aged in ex-sherry casks, which has added a layer of fruity sweetness - think port-like sloe notes, Muscatel, and wisteria. The wood is lightly handled, allowing the aromas full rein on the palate. " - Whisky Advocate
**Best Buy** The nosing passes find aromas of sugar cookies, orange zest, baked pineapple, dry breakfast cereal and citrus-flavored hard candy. Entry is malty sweet, woody and toffee-like; at midpalate the flavors include walnut butter, nougat and honey. Finishes as pleasant and sweet as it began.
