Zephyr & Bloom | 15 YO Dailuaine | 70cl
Each product is beautifully packed in sustainable and recycled packaging, ensuring it arrives safely and with care.
Dailuaine is rarely seen as a single malt bottling making it all the more collectable.
Their set-up – six large stills, condensers – suggests that a light style should be produced, but instead it produces a heavy ‘meaty’ make thanks to long fermentation, rapid distillation and the use of stainless steel in the condensers to cut down on copper interaction.
Dailuaine distillation process results in a robust, almost smoky character, despite being an unpeated whisky.
Dailuaine derives from the Gaelic ‘An dail uaine’ meaning ‘green valley’. Considering the distillery’s idyllic placement among the gentle green undulations of the Spey valley, this vintage 2007 single cask malt literally brims with bold orchard fruits with buttery baked pears, green apples and strawberries with cream on the nose. The fruitiness carries through on the palate with a general cereal character building into vanilla and icing sugar with a short to medium crescendo of white pepper, vanilla, red apples and pencil shavings.
