Information
Scotland, Speyside. Distillery dismantled.
Like the Glenburgie distillery, and under the aegis of the Canadian company Hiram Walk, Miltonduff was equipped with a pair of Lomond stills in 1964. 17 years later (1981), in the midst of economic crisis, the stills were removed, bringing the existence of Mosstowie to a premature end. Designed to increase the choice available to master blenders without having to build new distilleries, this type of practice fizzled out due to the economic climate and the difficulties associated with maintaining this type of equipment. The single malts were bottled primarily by independent bottlers, the oldest and rarest versions in Italy (Sestante), the vintages 1970, 1975 and 1979 by Gordon & MacPhail, and the 1973, 1978 and 1979 versions by Signatory Vintage.
A single cask Miltonduff (#7449) distilled in 1983, matured for 34 years and bottled in 2018. A.D. Rattray was founded in 1868 by Andres Dewar Rattray, who at the time was a wine, rum and olive oil importer. He also bought, stored and blended malt and grain whiskies. After his death in 1910 and difficulties in the 1920s, the business ended up in the hands of William Walker in 1938, whose daughter married Stanley P. Morrison the following year. Stanley P. Morrison’’s son Stanley Walker Morrison bought A.D. Rattray from his aunt in 1993, a year before Morrison Bowmore was bought by Beam Suntory. The brand was relaunched in 2002, releasing the Cask Collection in 2004. This is a limited edition of 150 bottles.
