Daftmill 2006 Cask Strength 15yo is a remarkable single malt whisky crafted by the family-owned and operated Daftmill Distillery, nestled in the scenic Kingdom of Fife, Scotland. This exquisite expression was distilled in 2006 and has gracefully matured over 15 years in 28 first fill ex-bourbon barrels, before being meticulously bottled in 2022 at a robust cask strength of 55.7%. Daftmill is renowned as a seasonal farm distillery, managed by the industrious Cuthbert family during the farm's quieter periods. The barley used in this whisky was uniquely harvested from the distillery's own fields and malted by the esteemed Robert Kilgour & Co. prior to their closure. This particular release holds significant prestige as it represents Daftmill's first official age-statement whisky and the pioneering age-statement release from a single farm estate.
This whisky is distinct due to its origins at a seasonal farm distillery, the use of estate-grown barley, and being Daftmill's first official age-statement release.
