The Singleton Glendullan 12-Year-Old Whisky is produced by Diageo and comes from Dufftown, Scotland which is in the Speyside region. Glendullan is a distillery founded in 1897 and today is owned by Diageo for their production needs.
There are three brand names of The Singleton that were originally designed for three major markets. Glendullan for North America, Glen Ord for Asia, and Dufftown for Europe. However, today all are available in each market sector. I am sure the plan made sense in the conference room when it was pitched. They also having varying age expressions such as the 12, 15 and 18 year old.
The whisky is 40% abv, chilled filtered, color adjusted, and aged for 12 years in ex bourbon and sherry casks. I first saw this whisky promoted on Binging With Babish and thought it might be worth a try. The description appeared to be a sweeter summer whisky which matches the flavor profile. It is not too complex, but it is fresh tasting with a nice clean finish. It reminds me of Tomatin 12 for taste and price range.
Priced around $45 and worth the money if you like the flavor profile.
