Dailuaine 'Gordon & MacPhail' 2009 / 12 years old 57.3%

Bottled from a single first-fill ex-sherry hogshead, this dark and brooding Dailuaine offers an explosion of sherry-driven notes - autumnal spice, medjool dates and stewed raisin flavours. A dry edge of roasted coffee beans joins a faint herbal note, with summer fruits and old wooded notes to round out the finish. Bottled at natural strength without the addition of water or colouring.
