The Deveron 12 Years Highland Single Malt [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Highland single malt that captures the essence of Scotland’s rugged coastline without breaking the bank?

The Deveron 12 Years Highland Single Malt emerges from the historic Macduff distillery, where the River Deveron meets the Moray Firth. This 12-year maturation in oak barrels creates a whisky with remarkable refined complexity that rivals expressions costing twice as much. While much of Macduff’s production goes into premium blends, this single malt showcases what makes Highland whiskies so coveted. For comparison, consider exploring The Dalmore 21 Years Highland Single Malt or the exceptional The Dalmore 25 Years Highland Single Malt for extended aging profiles.
