Tasting Notes

Nose: Inviting scents of milk chocolate, caramelized sugar, and a hint of cherry—all underpinned by soft cereal tones Palate: Creamy waves of toffee, raisin, and nutty oak glide smoothly, revealing the mellow influence of second-fill Oloroso sherry Finish: Gentle and lingering, tapering off with spiced vanilla, a faint oak dryness, and echoes of juicy dark fruit

Uncover a rare slice of Lowland whisky heritage with this Port Dundas 16 Year Old 2008, bottled by Signatory under the Un-Chillfiltered Collection in December 2024. Once Scotland’s largest grain distillery, Port Dundas closed its doors in 2010, making each remaining cask a treasured relic. For this release, two 2nd Fill Oloroso Sherry Butts (#585867 & #585868) were chosen, imbuing the gentle grain spirit with notes of candied fruit, toffee sweetness, and a subtle sherry warmth. Bottled without chill-filtration, this expression offers the pure essence of single grain at a prime 16-year maturation.

Why We ThinkYou’ll Love It:

A limited single grain from a closed distillery, showcasing Port Dundas’s distinguished sweetness and smooth texture
16-year maturation in 2nd Fill Oloroso casks imparts nuanced sherry depth without overpowering the delicate grain spirit
Bottled in the Un-Chillfiltered Collection to preserve its full, natural flavor and mouthfeel
An excellent way to experience historic Lowland grain whisky, perfect for curious connoisseurs and collectors alike

Revel in the nostalgic charm of Port Dundas—an indulgent union of mellow grain character and soft sherry influence, offered in a rare glimpse of a bygone Scottish distilling era.

The Distillery

Port Dundas Distillery, founded by Daniel McFarlane in 1811 in Glasgow’s Port Dundas area, was a cornerstone of Scotland’s whisky industry. The area rapidly evolved into an industrial hub with three distilleries sharing the Port Dundas name. By 1845, the two operating distilleries adopted Coffey stills for grain spirit production and merged in 1877, becoming the world’s largest distillery by 1885, processing corn, barley, and rye, with grain imported from America. At its peak in 1886, it featured two malt kilns, five grain kilns, thirty-five washbacks, three Coffey stills, and five pot stills. The distillery closed in 2010, with demolition following shortly after, marking the end of a significant chapter in whisky history.
