Macduff 11 Year Old Batch 4 | That Boutique-y Whisky Company
Archive Details
A Small Batch Highland Independent Bottling
Distilled at Macduff and bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company as Batch 4, this 11 year old Highland single malt was released in a limited run of only 464 bottles at 49.1% ABV. Matured in oak casks and presented in TBWC’s distinctive small-batch style, the whisky balances vibrant orchard fruit, sweet malt, citrus oils, and gentle spice with the approachable texture and personality that has made the series increasingly popular among independent bottling enthusiasts.

About the Distillery
Macduff remains one of the Highlands’ more understated distilleries, often recognised by enthusiasts for producing a bright and fruit-driven spirit with citrus, malt, and subtle coastal characteristics. Official releases are relatively limited compared to larger Highland names, making independently bottled examples increasingly appealing to collectors seeking lesser-seen distillery profiles beyond mainstream releases.
About the Bottling
That Boutique-y Whisky Company became known for combining small-scale independent bottlings with illustrated labels and approachable, character-driven releases sourced from a wide range of distilleries. Batch 4 of Macduff highlights the distillery’s lighter and fruit-forward side while maintaining enough texture and spice to deliver complexity beyond its age statement. Limited to only 464 bottles, it represents a compact independent release aimed at enthusiasts exploring modern IB bottlings with individuality and strong presentation.

Natural variation in fill level, packaging condition, and label ageing can occur in older releases and forms part of the character of mature collectible whisky.
