Dalwhinnie 1992 (Bottled 2010) Oloroso Cask Finish Distillers Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Green and oaky with notes of sweet vanilla, nutmeg and sultana. Hints of redcurrants and barley.

Finish: Spicy and very fruity, almost tangy with hints of lavender honey.
Distillery Information
Dalwhinnie whisky distillery, sitting between the Grampian and Monadhliath mountain ranges of Inverness-shire is Scotland’s highest working distillery at 327m or 1073 ft above sea level. That means it gets really cold up there. It has the lowest average temperature in the UK at around 6°C and the distillery often gets cut off during the winter. That cold weather has a distinct effect on the whisky’s character, as we shall see. Though it is close to Speyside, Dalwhinnie is classed as a Highland distillery. Despite its lofty location, the distillery is well-connected thanks to the railway that links Speyside to Perth, Aberdeen, and central Scotland. Which is exactly why three entrepreneurs Alexander Mackenzie, John Grant, and George Stellar decided to build a distillery here in 1897. That and the pure local water and plentiful peat. They called it Strathspey and it began distilling the following year but ran into financial difficulties, and closed not long after. The owners were forced to sell soon afterwards to John Sommerville & Co and A P Blyth & Sons, who changed the name to Dalwhinnie which means ‘meeting place’ in Scots Gaelic. The new owners employed the famed Charles Doig of Speyside to redesign parts of the distillery, including his trademark pagoda-shaped maltings.
