2012 Daftmill, Summer Batch Release, Bottled 2025 (46%) - 5cl
The Concerto barley was grown in the South Fields and harvested on 2–3 September 2011, then dried and stored on the farm before heading to Alloa in spring 2012 for malting.
For this release—now available in a 5cl bottle—twenty-three first-fill barrels, previously used for bourbon, were chosen. These casks matured on the upper level of the distillery’s traditional dunnage warehouse, where the warmer conditions encouraged a more active maturation. Filled between July and August 2012, the spirit rested for nearly thirteen years before being bottled in June 2025.
Daftmill Distillery
The Cuthbert brothers, longstanding stewards of the land, have cultivated malting barley on their estate for generations. Today, a small portion of their barley harvest—approximately 100 tons—is set aside specifically for their distilling operations. Water for the distillation process is sourced from the estate’s own artesian well, and the draft, a by product of mashing, is sustainably repurposed as feed for their award-winning beef cattle.
