A honeyed but rich and dark dram from Dufftown distillery, released as part of the Diageo Special Releases 2020. It was matured in refill American-oak hogsheads for 17 years and has developed into a much more chocolatey and fruity whisky than you might expect from the Speyside stalwart.

Tasting Notes
-
Billy Abbott, The Whisky Exchange
-
Nose
Damp, freshly mown grass leads, with sweet coffee pastilles and medium-dark chocolate following. Lighter floral notes develop, with boiled sweets and chocolate limes. Toast and honey notes build, joined by a touch of buttery pain au chocolat.
-
Palate
Rich and honeyed with more weight than the relatively fresh nose suggested. The toffee, lime and chocolate are back, with rich stewed orange notes. Fruity dark chocolate rolls in, with a touch of bitter char and rye crisp-bread to balance the sweetness. More floral notes develop with some time in the glass: grass meadows and spring blossoms.
-
Finish
Honey and chocolate lead to warming spice, green apple and gentle grassy notes.
-
Comment
The nose zigged and the palate zagged, with extra weight and complexity coming through on the tongue. Nice rich back-end for a 100% American-oak dram, with the whisky showing lots of chocolate – the darker side of the oak’s usual cream and vanilla character.
