The 2002 vintage of Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition, bottled in 2017.
Distilled sixteen years ago back in 2002 and finished in casks that previously held Oloroso Sherry, the finish is a whisky with an added layer of rich fruit.
Dalwhinnie Distiller's Edition is a highland Single Malt from the highest and coldest distillery in Scotland.
Makes an ideal gift for lovers of Dalwhinnie and rich highland Single Malt Whiskies!
Nose: Fresh sherry embraces the maltier, more honeyed aspects of Dalwhinnie. Peaty and surprisingly, still heathery. Spicy yet grapy.
Palate: A big, spicy buzz followed by an impressive build-up of very clear, well defined Scotch. After a quick burst of sweetness, a rich, grape effect moves in towards the middle.
Finish: Tons of oak. Very, very dry with vanilla dominating. The perfect dram for those in search of a very dry malt finish.
