Daftmill is a very interesting distillery with much love in the whisky community, so much so that this is the first bottle behind the bar here at the Quaich. The distillery is a farm-to-bottle operation, meaning that the only produce is from the barley that they sow on their farm in Fife. Mid-Summer and Winter are the two times in the year that they produce whisky because farm work quiets down.
Adding all this together, and considering the fact that they only produce 100 casks a year, this week is amber-gold dust! This release comes from 5 ex-bourbon casks, which give a lovely honey note, along with the typical floral note from Daftmill Distillery.
