Originally, each one catered to a specific global market based on its flavour profile, but these days they can each be found further afield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith spirit stills that are larger than its wash stills, Dufftown used to produce a heavier spirit described as “nutty and spicy”. However, more recently it has lengthened its fermentation time for a lighter, grassier flavour that better suits (parent company) Diageo’s blending requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Dufftown\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"banner wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"banner-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"banner-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"banner-content-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"introduction\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003eOne of the few distilleries whose spirit stills are larger than its wash stills, for years Dufftown was produced in the ‘Bell’s’ style – a malt-heavy, ‘nutty-spicy’ character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagenav js-fixed\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"company-profile__item company-profile__profile\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn recent years fermentation has been lengthened, the wort runs clear and a grassy new make is made. This is down to the needs of Diageo’s blenders.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of a number of distilleries which started as a mill, Dufftown started producing whisky in 1896 for its owner, the blending firm Mackenzie \u0026amp; Co (which already owned Blair Athol). It became part of Arthur Bell \u0026amp; Son's in 1933 and was a key player within that blender’s estate, increasing its stills to eight by 1979 – currently there are six.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBell’s also built the neighbouring Pittyvaich distillery in 1975 (it was run more or less as Dufftown 2) to cater for the rise in demand for its blend. Pittyvaich closed in 1993 and was demolished in 2002. Bell’s was bought by Guinness in 1985 and two years later Diageo was formed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUntil the opening of Roseisle, Dufftown was Diageo’s largest distillery. In 2006, it joined the Singleton family (alongside Glendullan and Glen Ord) with its market being, predominantly, UK and Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*due end Oct 2025\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e51.5% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e70cl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dufftown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55976905802053,"sku":"DUFF26CM1982","price":289.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9495\/8661\/files\/Dufftown26YearOld1982CarnMorCelebrationOftheCaskSingleBourbonHogshead_18589SpeysideSingleMaltScotchWhisky_2009_70cl.jpg?v=1760566944","url":"https:\/\/b1yyjg-bk.myshopify.com\/products\/dufftown-26-year-old-1982-carn-mor-celebration-of-the-cask-single-bourbon-hogshead-18589-speyside-single-malt-scotch-whisky-2009-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation Old","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
