Description
A 10 year old Dailuaine from the bottler Brave New Spirits, from cask Batch No. 1, bottled at 51%, one of 1267 bottles. Dailuaine is a full bodied Speyside malt of real depth, mostly bottled by independents. It had its own railway siding and a little locomotive, Dailuaine No.1, known as the Puggy.
Run through the distillery's big copper stills, building the heavy Dailuaine style. First fill bourbon gave a fuller vanilla over the robust spirit. In integration lactones (coconut) and vanillin (vanilla) knit with the malt, fruit deepening to dried fruit. The rich, full bodied spirit takes cask flavour well, especially sherry wood. Dailuaine's heavy, malty make is prized by blenders for the body it gives. It passed to DCL and Scottish Malt Distillers in the 1920s and was later modernised. A first fill sherry cask suits the robust spirit, dried fruit meeting the meaty weight.
Bottled at a cask strength 51%, it is rich. Orchard fruit, malt and a warm spice, with a soft vanilla from the oak. A baked fruit and a warm spice lift it. The finish is long, rich and savoury. This is one of Speyside's heavier single malts.
