- Description
- Dailuaine's 1997 vintage spent 21 years in first-fill bourbon wood, building rich, mature flavours of nutty oak and buttered shortbread with subtle herbaceous smoke. The first-fill cask has imparted generous vanilla and caramel notes while allowing the distillery's natural character to shine through. This limited release suits those seeking mature Speyside complexity with a gentle smoky thread.
