Dalwhinnie 15 Year Old

43% abv

Vol- 70cl

Dalwhinnie was almost unknown prior to its inclusion in Diageo’s Classic Malts series in 1987, and the majority of the spirit produced there still goes into the Buchanan’s and Black and White blends, despite it being in the top 15 best-selling malts worldwide. The distillery’s declared status as the Highlands representative in the Classic Malt range has raised a few eyebrows over the years, given that many writers (including Michael Jackson) consider it to be in the sub-region of Speyside (already represented by Cragganmore in the Classic Malts). Indeed, the distillery’s original name was Strathspey, and its closest neighbouring distillery is The Speyside.

NOSE
A big, crisp, dry and very aromatic nose with hints of heather and peat.

PALATE
Smooth, soft and lasting flavours of heather-honey sweetness and vanilla followed by deeper citrus-fruit flavours and hints of malted bread.

FINISH
Long, lingering, surprisingly intense finish that starts sweetly, then gives way to smoke, peat and malt.

Dalwhinnie held the title of Scotland's highest distillery for 6 years between 2002 and 2008 but was robbed of it's title when Braeval reopened. Nevertheless it remains Scotland's coldest distillery with a yearly average temperature of just 6°C.

Dalwhinnie is located 55 miles south of Inverness on the edge of the Cairngorms National Park in the highland but according to some sources it is a Speyside distillery. The Dalwhinnie distillery is one of the few Scotch whisky distilleries where worm tubs are still in use.
Even more unique: the worm tubs at Dalwhinnie are made from wood (they usually are made of metal).
