The Daftmill 2006 Summer Batch Release is a whisky produced by the family-owned and operated Daftmill Distillery, located in the Lowlands of Fife, Scotland. Founded in 2003 by Francis and Ian Cuthbert, the distillery is known for its dedication to traditional methods and high-quality ingredients. Restoring an old mill building on their family farm, the Cuthberts obtained their license to distill in late 2005, with the first casks being filled before the year's end. This particular release is a limited edition Summer batch, distilled shortly after the distillery opened in 2006. It is one of only 1,665 bottles released in the summer of 2018, making it a highly sought-after collector's item. This whisky boasts an ABV of 46% and is presented in a 700ml bottle. The spirit is crafted from barley grown and malted on the Daftmill farm, and it has been matured in ex-bourbon barrels in the farm's warehouse. Daftmill is celebrated for using long fermentations, small stills, and slow distillation to produce a light, fruity spirit. Approximately 90% of their whisky is aged in ex-bourbon casks, with the remainder in sherry oak. The Daftmill 2006 Summer Batch Release is characterized by its fruity and smooth taste, reflecting the traditional methods and local ingredients used in its production.
