Dailuaine 1974 (bottled 2000) - Connoisseurs Choice (Gordon & MacPhail)
A rare old bottling from Gordon and MacPhail which was distilled at Dailuaine in 1974 and bottled in 2000.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Pleasant oil and wax aromas overlaid by sweet baked fruit and caramel.
Palate
The baked fruit expands on the tongue for a really mouth filling dram. There is some spice here too but it's the fruit that dominates, with a slight smoke weaving through the palate.
Finish
The spice comes to the fore on the finish and it leaves a lingering pepperiness with more than a hint of nutmeg.
Overall
An excellent dram with perfect balance. There is a lot here to enjoy.
