Product description
The Hart family began trading in the late 19th century, but it was not until 1964 that brothers Iain and Donald Hart joined the whisky producers, changing the name of the family business to Wine & Spirits Wholesalers and Scotch Whisky Blenders.
Alistair Hart joined in 1975 and remains the Master Blender to this day, selecting the casks for all Hart Brothers whiskies. The Miltonduff featured here was distilled in March 2007, matured in American oak casks and finished in a Marsala hogshead. The whisky was bottled at cask strength (49.5% abv), natural colour and unchill-filtered in September 2021. Miltonduff is a key component of Ballantine's blends.
Nose: vanilla, crème brûlée, toffee, buttered croissant, plums, cherries, raspberries, nougat, cinnamon, cloves and delicate oak notes.
Flavor: vanilla cream, cheese buns, cappuccino, milk chocolate, cherries, blueberries, gooseberries, roasted nuts, allspice and oak.
Finish: quite long, with notes of summer berries, vanilla, honey, cloves, a touch of white pepper and oak tannins.
