Mina kommentarer:
Hittade en flaska Dailuaine från exakt rätt dag (Fridas födelsedag) på whiskyauction och samtidigt fanns denna. Rätt månad på den med, så det fick bli ett köp av den också. Har mailat Douglas Laing och frågat om datum men tror inte jag får svar.
Min poäng: ?? p
Tasting notes från whiskyfun: Officiella tasting notes:
Dailuaine 11 yo 1997/2009 (46%, Douglas of Drumlanrig, cask #4888, 715 bottles)
Colour: full gold. Nose: not a very expressive kind of spirit but the profile is clean and straight, not exuberantly fruity nor porridgy/mashy at eleven years of age. It’s a Dailuaine that’s clearly more Highlands than Speyside in style, with notes of green apples, linseed oil, candle wax, pastries and just a little vanilla crème. Perfectly enjoyable and well balanced. Some quince coming through after ten minutes. Mouth: excellently sweet and fruity with a medium spiciness. Green apples and lemons plus almond cake, fresh oranges, a little ginger, a little cinnamon and just touches of salt. Very, very good in my view. Finish: long, clean, a little more candied (Demerara sugar). Barley sugar and just hints of lavender sweets. Pepper. Comments: excellent surprise, this youngster is a perfect dram, excellent value for money (sorry, I cannot remember the price but it isn’t expensive). Recommended.
