Intensity
A whisky that justly expresses the wildness of the climate from which it originates.
More infoFrom the highest distillery in Scotland and one of the harshest climates, this whisky expresses these conditions well. To taste, we find an aromatic bouquet marked by waxy, smoky notes, as well as flowery ones reflecting the heather that surrounds the distillery. Ample and buttery, almost creamy, its palate finishes on lightly sugary, spiced and peppery notes.
About the Producer Dalwhinnie
Scotland, Northern Highlands. Distillery operational. Owner: DiageoSelected to join the famous Six Classics range launched in the late 1980s by United Distillers, Dalwhinnie remains to this day somewhat in the shadow of its illustrious colleagues Lagavulin, Talisker and Oban. Despite a handful of vintage versions, including a 1966 released in 2004, it seems to be limited to the group's classic releases, Distillers Edition and Winter's Gold. Note that very few independent bottlings of this malt exist, save for the vintage bottlings from Gordon & MacPhail and Cadenhead, all pre-1970s. Dalwhinnie is also a key component in the blends Buchanans, Black & White, Haig and Dimple.Located at 327 metres above sea level, the Dalwhinnie distillery is considered the highest in Scotland. It is also here that the lowest average annual temperature is recorded, coming to just 6°C. It produces whisky with characteristic notes of honey and a firm finish.
