Dailuaine Managers Dram Whisky 17 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and a burnished copper glow, richly hued by the ex-sherry cask.

Nose

Opulent sherry-driven aroma greets with sun-dried fruits—raisin, prune and fig—bound by toffee, cocoa and a whisper of dark caramel. Cinnamon and nutmeg spice drift over orange zest, leather and polished oak, finishing with a warm, velvety depth that hints at dessert-like richness.

Palate

Sherried richness coats the palate with fig, dried plum and toasted almond, evolving into dark chocolate and espresso. Full-bodied and warming at cask strength, it carries cinnamon and clove spice, a mocha undertone, and a long finish of glossy oak, toffee sweetness, and a peppery, lingering bite.

Finish

Long, opulent and warming, the finish delivers sherry-rich sweetness with dark fruit and cocoa. Raisin and fig mingle with toasted oak as cinnamon and clove thread through, leaving a velvet coat on the palate. The high-proof glow lingers, a sophisticated, leather-bound warmth that slowly fades to a warm, lingering whisper.
