Dalwhinnie 2017 Distillers Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky 15 Year Old · 2002 Vintage

Colour

Golden straw, softly warming to amber at the rim with a subtle coppery glow.

Nose

Delicate malt and honeyed sweetness form the base, enhanced by a refined oloroso lift. Subtle red-fruit notes—raspberry, plum and a hint of strawberry—blend with raisin, almond and oak, finished by a bright hint of orange zest. A poised, sherried Highland aroma that invites the palate.

Palate

Light and refined on the palate, it carries delicate red fruit notes—cherry and berry—lifted by a gentle oloroso sherry sweetness. The malt remains bright and silky, with subtle honeyed almond and a hint of spice. The finish is warm and polished, lingering with fruit, a touch of oak, and refined sherry depth.

Finish

Delicate red-fruit sweetness from the oloroso lingers, complementing Dalwhinnie’s light, fruity heart. A warm, refined finish reveals cherry and dried fig with a trace of almond, followed by subtle oak spice that threads away with quiet length.
