- Description
- Dallas Dhu's 1971 distillate, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 1994 as part of their Connoisseurs Choice series, represents whisky from the distillery decades before it closed and later reopened as a museum. The 23-year maturation created a mature, settled spirit reflective of Speyside tradition from that era. At 40% ABV, the balance of age and proof captures a snapshot of 1970s distillery character. A historical bottling for collectors and those interested in Speyside's pre-closure era.
