Description
This Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition was distilled in 1997 and bottled in 2014. It has the elegance and distinction of the old aristocracy but it embodies the broad, muscular body of the peaty highland clan country too with notes of peat and heather in its rich repertoire. Exceptionally smooth and full of flavour this special Dalwhinnie has been double matured in the rich Oloroso cask-wood that has been especially selected for its fine yet robust balance.
Tasting Notes
| Nose |
| Distillery: Fresh sherry embraces the maltier, more honeyed aspects of Dalwhinnie. Peaty and surprisingly, still heathery. Spicy yet grapy. |
| Taste |
| Distillery: A big, spicy buzz followed by an impressive build up of very clear, well defined malt. After a quick burst of sweetness, a rich, grape effect moves in towards the middle. |
| Finish |
| Distillery: Lots of oak. Very, very dry with vanilla dominating. |
