Origin & Production:
Stepping up in age and depth, The Singleton 15 Year spends longer in selected European and American oak, deepening dried-fruit richness, caramelized sugars, and spice. The house approach emphasizes harmony—time in cask integrates sherry influence with vanilla-oak sweetness for a fuller, more contemplative Speyside expression.
Tasting Notes:
The nose shows apricot jam, sultanas, honeycomb, and polished oak with a dusting of baking spice. On the palate, think fruitcake, toffee, and candied orange balanced by cinnamon, clove, and toasted almond. Texture is plush yet lively. The finish runs long and warming, leaving dried fruit, nut praline, and gentle oak tannin in measured balance.
Serving Suggestion:
Best sipped neat in a tulip glass; a few drops of water can widen the dried-fruit and spice spectrum. Pair with aged cheddar, walnut brownies, or fig-and-almond cake to echo its richer, dessert-leaning profile.
