Daftmill 15-Year-Old Fife Strength – A Rare Lowland Masterpiece

The Daftmill 15-Year-Old Fife Strength is an exceptionally rare, cask-strength single malt from one of Scotland’s most exclusive distilleries. Family-owned and operated, Daftmill Distillery produces whisky in small batches, releasing only limited quantities each year—making this 15-year-old expression a true collector’s gem.

Distilled in 2006 and aged for 15 years in first-fill bourbon barrels, this Lowland single malt showcases remarkable depth, balance, and natural intensity. Bottled at Fife Strength (Daftmill’s take on cask strength), it delivers an unfiltered, full-flavoured experience that whisky enthusiasts will savour.

On the nose, expect a vibrant bouquet of orchard fruits, honeyed malt, and vanilla, wrapped in delicate floral and citrus notes. Hints of toasted oak, white pepper, and creamy toffee add further intrigue.

The palate is rich and complex, offering layers of ripe apple, pear, and lemon zest, beautifully balanced with buttery shortbread, caramelized sugar, and warming spice. The bourbon cask influence brings a touch of coconut, vanilla bean, and nutmeg, while the natural cask strength provides an exceptional mouthfeel.

The finish is long, clean, and elegantly warming, leaving behind whispers of oak, soft spice, and lingering fruit sweetness. This whisky is a true showcase of Daftmill’s meticulous craftsmanship, making it a must-have for collectors and fans of premium Lowland whisky.

With only a limited number of bottles available, the Daftmill 15-Year-Old Fife Strength is a whisky you won’t want to miss.
