The Singleton

A masterpiece of patience and expertise

The Singleton, an award-winning Single Malt Scotch Whisky, emerges from three Highland distilleries: Glen Ord, Glendullan, and Dufftown. Celebrated for its exceptionally smooth texture and profound flavours, it is a testament to the care given at each stage of its creation.

Celebrating slow craft

The Singleton embodies patience and precision, fermenting for 75 hours to allow for deeper and richer flavours. Its signature smooth texture comes from an equally slow, gentle distillation process and careful maturation in American and European oak casks. Taking things slowly results in a perfectly balanced whisky, spicy at first, then soft and sweet, with notes of citrus, vanilla and silky honey.

Visit The Singleton

The Singleton of Glen Ord

The Black Isle Peninsula, home to The Singleton’s Glen Ord Distillery, gets its name from its rich, fertile soil. The land has been in the possession of the MacKenzie family for nearly 700 years and Thomas MacKenzie chose the site for his whisky distillery in 1838.

Today, Glen Ord hosts a state-of-the-art distillery visitor experience, just moments from the breathtaking north Coast 500. Here, visitors from all over the world can discover the art of The Singleton, and meet the people behind the craft.
