- Description
- Dallas Dhu distillery closed its doors permanently, making this 1977-distilled single malt a increasingly precious remnant of a lost chapter in Scotch whisky history. Bottled 20 years after distillation by Direct Wines' First Cask range, the whisky carries the distinctive character of its era—a window into pre-modernization Scottish distilling practices. Essential for collectors and whisky historians tracing the evolution of regional styles.
