Macduff (Glen Deveron) distillery was built with blending in mind and that mindset has never changed. It is a distillery that seems to arouse neither passion nor hatred amongst whisky lovers. 

The reason for this is that the spirit is essentially flawless, classically Speyside in style, sweet, malty, floral, slightly spicy, and with a little smoke. In 2009, unfortunately, the Scotch Whisky Act defined the Speyside region using political boroughs, and Macduff - being on the eastern edge of Speyside - was suddenly redefined as a Highland single malt. I don't remember ever trying a bad one and I don't remember any making the earth move or blowing my mind either and that is probably Macduffs problem, consistent okayness.
