Orphan Barrel Muckety-Muck Single Grain Scotch Whiskey 24 Year (750 ml)

Established in 1810, Port Dundas distillery closed its doors a decade ago. The distillery was once a local landmark overlooking the city of Glasgow, and is known for its core expressions: Port Dundas 12 Year Old and Port Dundas 18 Year Old.

Port Dundas was also home to a piggery during the distillery’s most successful years. Hundreds of pigs reportedly fed on distillery draff, with the prized pig Muckety-Muck a local attraction for his decorated wall of medals in the breeding shed, the company says.

Muckety-Muck 24 Year Old Single Grain Scotch Whisky from the Port Dundas Distillery is a tribute to this pig, and Port Dundas’ prosperous period as an operating distillery.

Tasting Notes: 

• Nose: Fruity for just a moment, sweetens into musk.
• Palate: Very creamy texture. A light fruit taste up front, reminiscent of pears. Fairly boozy. A bit tannic and bitter moves into the very butterscotch finish. With continued drinking it becomes a bit monotone and bitter.
