Daftmill 15-Year-Old Fife Strength is a distinguished expression of Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, embodying 15 years of patient maturation and the essence of Fife’s unique terroir.
Produced at the historic Daftmill Distillery, this whisky reflects the time-honoured practices of a family farm where malting barley is grown and water is drawn from a natural artesian well. Francis Cuthbert, the master distiller, upholds a traditional seasonal schedule, a method that has scarcely been seen in Scotland for over a century.
The whisky is carefully matured for 15 years, allowing it to develop a complex character. Throughout the ageing process, sweet vanilla gracefully intertwines with deftly spiced custard, while orchard fruits are slowly stewed and roasted. The rich oak structure evolves into a velveteen finish, revealing the wisdom of growing maturity.
This release, bottled in 2024 at Fife Strength, is a salute to Fife’s finest and a rare gem for whisky enthusiasts. It not only honours the storied legacy of the Cuthbert family but also encapsulates the spirit of traditional Lowland craftsmanship in every sip.
