About Miltonduff

“Miltonduff distillery is a Scotch whisky distillery located in Miltonduff six miles south-west of Elgin in the whisky region of Speyside.”From Wikipedia, CC BY-SA

The Scotch Malt Whisky Society bottles single casks under numeric codes rather than distillery names, so a label reading 72.403 means cask 403 from distillery 72. That distillery is Miltonduff, in Speyside. More on Miltonduff at Wikipedia.
