A limited release from Fife's family-owned farm distillery - just 3,294 bottles. Distilled and filled between November 2010 and the end of January 2011, the whisky matured in the upper level of Warehouse 2 before being bottles in June 2026 at Daftmill’s traditional Fife strength.
It draws on a selection of seventeen first-fill ex-bourbon barrels. The barley variety Publican used for this release was grown in the 43-acre field and harvested by John and Sandy on 28th & 29th August 2009. After harvest, the barley was dried and stored on the farm before being malted in Alloa during the summer of 2010.

Tastingnotes

The nose opens with lemon meringue pie: fresh lemon zest and curd folded through sweet vanilla, with a gentle biscuit richness beneath. The palate becomes rounder and more indulgent, bringing caramel and soft vanilla alongside the lively citrus fruit. The casks have made their presence known without overwhelming the spirit, adding depth, sweetness and texture, whilst allowing that unmistakable Daftmill freshness to shine through.
A wonderful example not only of Daftmill´s distinctive character, but of Francis Cuthbert´s skill in identifying and bringing together individual casks.Felix Dear, BB&R Spirits Curator
