Adelphi's latest Miltonduff release is a big one. Distilled in 1982 and aged in an Ex-Bourbon cask for 40 Years, this malt has had time to develop into an incredibly delicate, complex spirit. Waxy, floral and rather muted on the note, the palate & finish of this malt bursts with flavour and lingers for a long, long time.
Everything an old, non-sherried whisky should be.
Miltonduff is one of the Chivas Brothers' distilleries and is currently part of their succesful Ballantines blend. More single malt expressions have been appearing in recent years, with the independent bottlings particularly impressive.
Adelphi is one of the world's top independent bottlers of whisky. They acquire casks already matured to bottle, as opposed to maturing them themselves, and the Adelphi brand has been synonymous with top quality whisky for in the post-2000 era. The company also owns the Ardnamurchan distillery on Scotland's east coast, which distilled its first spirit in 2014 and released its first single malt in 2020.
