Port Dundas 18 Year Old Single Grain 2004 Single PX Sherry Cask DL16601 (2022) 70cl

This complex Single Grain was first distilled at the Port Dundas Distillery in July 2004 and was finished in a PX Sherry Butt. The resulting, rich spirit boasts sugar candy, with flamed orange peel and an unexpected espresso shot.

A special collection within our Old Particular – Exceptional Single Cask – range, the Midnight Series is named in honour of the darkest time of night…

Instantly recognisable via their black labels and addition of a “Midnight” illustrated stamp, these unique Single Cask bottlings are exceptionally dark in colour and rich in flavour, owing to their Sherry cask heritage.

Tasting Notes 

Nose : Shows an early gently burnt sugared style plus a later hint of citrus and macha

Palate : Mouth-coats in sugar candy with flamed orange peel then an unexpected espresso

Finish : So very different from any Scotch! Smothered in sugar, liquorice and gentle spice 

About Port Dundas 

Built in 1811 at the highest point of the city of Glasgow, Port Dundas grain distillery was a true giant of its day. It became a founding member of DCL in 1877, and over the years has been key component in many of its blends, including Johnnie Walker and White Horse. By the end of the 19th century it was the largest distillery in Scotland, armed with three Coffey and five pot stills, the giant was producing well over two million gallons of spirit a year. Having survived two fires in the early 20th century, the distillery’s story came to an end in 2010 when Diageo the modern iteration of DCL, closed it down to consolidate its grain production at the newly expanded Cameronbridge.
