Daftmill 15 Year Old Fife Strength | 2024 Bottling

Located on the Cuthbert family’s working farm in Fife, Daftmill is one of Scotland’s few true “farm distilleries.” Licensed in 2005, it operates seasonally, distilling only during the farm’s quiet periods—summer and winter—using barley grown entirely on-site. This rare and meticulous approach has earned Daftmill a devoted following among whisky collectors and enthusiasts.

The 15 Year Old Fife Strength showcases Daftmill’s elegant Lowland style with depth and character from long, quiet maturation. A combination of first-fill bourbon and Pedro Ximénez casks brings layers of orchard fruit, vanilla, stewed apples, and a gentle sweetness, all underpinned by rich oak structure and delicate spice.
