Description
Made in the highest and coldest working distillery in Scotland, with water from a loch at 2000 feet, Dalwhinnie whisky thrives on extreme conditions – creating a liquid as sweet and accessible as its highland home is remote.
The Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition brings a new dimension of taste and exploration to the enjoyment of single malt whisky.
Each of the seven distilleries has hand selected a small number of their casks for double maturing.
The whisky is matured for a second time in cask-wood which each Master Distiller has chosen to complement the unique character of the individual Malt Whisky.
Lovers of Dalwhinnie will appreciate the way the fragrance of Oloroso sherry overlays, but does not mask, the heather honey distillery notes.
This edition was distilled in 2013 and bottled in 2018.
The resulting whisky is a has aromas of fresh sherry embracing the maltier, more honeyed aspects of Dalwhinnie.
Peaty and surprisingly, still heathery.
Spicy yet grapy.
The palate begins with a big, spicy buzz followed by an impressive build up of very clear, well defined malt.
After a quick burst of sweetness, a rich, grape effect moves in towards the middle.
