Daftmill 12 Years 2011/2023 - Summer Batch Release

Extremely limited single malt production with extremely high demand – a brief summary of Daftmill's Single Farm Estate Whisky. At Daftmill Farm in the Scottish Lowlands, everything revolves around cows, potatoes, carrots, and the cultivation of malting barley. Since 2006, however, the Cuthbert family has also been processing their own grain into acclaimed single malt.

This rare farm whisky always matures for at least 10 years, after being distilled in very small batches of sometimes no more than 100 barrels per year. This is done exclusively during the off-season (June and July, as well as in winter), when neither potatoes nor barley need to be planted.

The new Daftmill 2011/2023 is based on Publican barley, harvested by John and Sandy on August 28 and 29, 2009. Malted at Crisp Malt in Alloa in the summer of 2010, the farm distillery distilled it into its Summer Batch Release. Twenty-seven first-fill bourbon casks from Clermont Springs in Kentucky were filled from June to August 2011 and bottled in September 2023 in 6,550 bottles.
