About the Singleton of Glendullan Classic

The Singleton of Glendullan Classic is a Speyside single malt produced by Glendullan Distillery in Dufftown, Scotland. This whisky is part of Diageo’s Singleton range and was designed for the travel retail market. Glendullan Distillery, founded in 1897, supplies both single malt bottlings and the broader Diageo blends. This expression carries no age statement. It is matured in a combination of first-fill sherry casks made from European oak and second-fill bourbon casks from American oak. The combination brings balanced fruitiness and a gentle caramel note. It is bottled at 40% ABV, chill-filtered, and coloured for consistency. In the glass, the whisky appears pale golden. The nose shows fresh orchard fruit—green apple, pear—a hint of honey, earthy vanilla, and a trace of cinnamon or soft spice. The palate remains light and smooth, with flavours of fresh apple, vanilla, cereal sweetness, honey, and a late touch of ginger or orange peel. There is mild dry oak and just a hint of bitterness. The finish is short and clean. It ends with faint oak bitterness, a citrus edge, and a touch of sweet spice. Awards for this whisky include a Silver Outstanding medal at the International Wine & Spirit Competition and a Silver Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, signalling strong performance in its category. This whisky is best suited to drinkers seeking a light, accessible Speyside malt that's easy to sip. It works neat or with a few drops of water to lift delicate fruit notes.
