Dalwhinnie The Managers Choice Single Malt Scotch Whisky 17 Year Old · 1992 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber-gold with a burnished copper glow and hints of mahogany.

Nose

Opulent sherry aromas cloak honeyed Dalwhinnie malt, with ripe orchard fruit and orange zest. Dried fig and raisin mingle with almond, dark chocolate, and warming spice, while vanilla notes and oak lend a refined backbone. A stately, generous nose that hints at depth and richness.

Palate

Opulent and warming on the palate, this Dalwhinnie delivers sherried richness with a silky mouthfeel. Dried fig and raisin meet orange zest, toasted almond and vanilla, while dark chocolate threads through. Spices—cinnamon and clove—linger, supported by a robust oak backbone and a long, warming finish with subtle fruit sweetness.

Finish

Long, graceful finish with plump dried fruits, orange zest and a kiss of toffee. Sherry-cask depth wraps cocoa, spice and a touch of almond, slowly fading to a warm, lasting nuttiness.
