DAILUAINE 1997 / 18 YO - WILSON & MORGAN

Dailuane is a very special Speyside distillery whose spirits are rarely found in official bottlings. Dailuane produces very interesting and complex whiskies. Given the richness and round character of the original spirit, only a few months of maturation in Pedro Ximenez casks were needed to obtain the rich and subtle aromas, a hint of tropical fruits and organic notes, which give it the perfection of an already very intense malt. On the nose it is very mineral and waxy with a slightly organic touch of damp earth and wood: a profile of an old Highlander, not strong, but very traditional. This impression also develops on the palate more malty than fruity or vinous, with a very robust character, cereal aromas, followed by pepper, mustard and a hint of oak tannins.
