$90.00
Description
The Dufftown-Glenlivet 75cl 1980s, often an 8-year-old expression, is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky known for its rich, balanced, and fruity profile. During the 1980s, Dufftown distillery, then owned by Arthur Bell & Sons, bottled whiskies under the “Dufftown-Glenlivet” name to associate with the renowned Glenlivet region. These vintage whiskies are characterized by their “pure malt” label, a designation no longer permitted for modern bottles.Â
