Dailuaine 16 Year Old Flora & Fauna Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

Dailuaine is Gaelic for "The Green Vale". This distillery established in 1852 lies in a hollow by the Carron Burn in Banffshire. This single malt scotch whisky has a full bodied fruity nose and a smoky finish.

For more than a hundred years distillery suppliers were despatched by rail. The steam locomotive 'Dailuaine No.1' was in use from 1939-1967 and is preserved on the Strathspey Railway.

This single malt was released as part of the "Flora and Fauna" series, a collection of single malts from the more obscure and unknown distilleries in Scotland.

"This is big, boisterous, and sherried, but there’s less of the gravy-browning elements you get from the other two; at Dailuaine it is fruit that is promoted alongside Seville orange, treacle, and the inevitable raisin and date. There are nods to PX sherry as well." - Dave Broom, Whisky Advocate
