Wilson & Morgan Dailuaine

A typical full bodied Speyside single malt, but still floral and delicately fruity, which has been finish for 14 months in barrels of first filling of a traditional Spanish bodega, which had been used to age the Oloroso sherry for 60 years.

It’s a lively whisky, full of citrus and fruity notes nose: sherry does not necessarily translate into a vinous character, but amplifies oranges, pears and apples at most. The citrus touch is slightly sour and is accompanied on the palate by a generous amount of raisins and chestnut honey, which results in a great balance between dryness, sweet and creamy. Here, too, it is only moderately vinous, but will soon turn decisively towards toasted and tannic notes. The peppery and astringent intensity it gets stronger and stronger in the finale
