- Description
- Dallas Dhu's 1969 vintage, closed for four decades and now preserved as a museum, offers a rare taste of 1960s Speyside production bottled at 50% by Douglas Laing. The extended sherry maturation has deepened the spirit into notes of rich malt, caramel, dried fruit, and oak tannins, creating a rounded, warming dram. The finish is long and slightly drying, with spice and wood influence. A historical bottle suited to serious whisky collectors and those tracing Scottish distillery evolution.
