Macduff 1969 37 Year Old Duncan Taylor

Macduff 1973 bottled 2016

Add some citrus as well as some freshly cut grass....

If you want to taste great Macduff, you will need to focus your attention on independent bottlers. Today I will be trying a Macduff, bottled by The Whiskyman, meaning it is a single cask at cask strength....
