Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky
In stock
Part of Diageo’s annual Distillers Edition range, this Dalwhinnie expression is a double-matured Highland single malt that builds on the distillery’s classic honeyed style. After its initial maturation in traditional oak casks, the whisky is finished in Oloroso sherry casks, adding additional depth, richness and gentle spice to the spirit. Bottled at 43% ABV, it offers a fuller interpretation of Dalwhinnie’s naturally smooth character.

Tasting Notes
Nose
Lightly heathery and sweetly honeyed, the aroma is beautifully introduced by a nutty-fruity waft of Oloroso. Tropical fruit notes of banana and pineapple give it a really appealing character, further developed by hints of fresh apricots, walnuts, and a little wood spice.
Palate
Creamy-smooth and coating, flowing lightly over the tongue. The taste is honey sweet, yet soon buzzes with warming nutmeg and pepperspice which nicely balance exotic, fruity hints of grape, peach and apricot.
Finish
Quite long, attractively sweet and malty yet also clean and with plenty of white pepper spiciness. Elegantly drying, vanilla-rich oak-spice lingers in the aftertaste.
