Official tasting notes.
Nose: Plenty of winey notes, ripe apricots, peaches and oranges, with a vibrant acidity that balances the ripeness.
Palate: Even more balance between ripe fruits (including red apples) and acidity. There’s a tannic background of fragrant tea and herbs, too, with the spiciness growing after the initial layers.
Finish: Peppery and with a pleasant touch of tannins.

Description
This intensely fruity Speyside single malt delivers an exceptionally well-rounded pour. Initially matured in a refill Pedro Ximenez sherry hogshead, it underwent an extended 48-month finish in a first-fill PX hogshead. The whisky offers outstanding value from a premium bottler at the top of their game.
About Dailuaine Distillery:
In 1852, Speyside farmer William Mackenzie established Dailuaine distillery in Scotland’s breathtaking “An dail uaine” meaning ‘the green valley’ in Gaelic. This name perfectly captures the distillery’s stunning Highland location. While Diageo releases occasional Flora & Fauna single malts, this powerhouse distillery operates primarily behind the scenes. Dailuaine whisky consistently fills premium casks for renowned Johnny Walker blends. Independent bottlers like Gordon & MacPhail and Samaroli treasure this under rated work-horse as well.
