Dailuaine Rare Malts Selection Single Malt Scotch Whisky 22 Year Old · 1973 Vintage

Colour

Dense amber with a coppery-gold glow and a hint of mahogany at the edge.

Nose

Opulent, sherry-driven nose with dark dried fruits—figs, raisins and prunes—layered with toffee, cocoa and espresso. Spiced walnut and cinnamon mingle with polished oak, releasing a warm, resinous sweetness that speaks of a 22-year maturation.

Palate

Rich and opulent on the palate, this 1973 Dailuaine Rare Malts unfurls with velvety sherry sweetness, deep dried fruit, and dark cocoa. The high-octane spirit carries a lacquered oak backbone, weaving toasted almond, espresso, and cinnamon into a lush, full-bodied cloak. A warming, peppery spice lingers, finishing long with evident fruitcake and tobacco notes.

Finish

Long, opulent finish with a warm sherry glow. Dried fig and date rise over cocoa and orange zest, backed by toasted oak and spice. The high ABV lingers as a velvety warmth, fading to leather and espresso with a lasting, refined echo.
