A gentle and approachable 10 year old single malt from the Glen Grant distillery in Rothes. Produced in pot stills and aged in ex-bourbon barrels, this is a light Speyside whisky with delicious notes of vanilla, fruit and malt. A great introduction to whisky for beginners, but there’s enough here to be enjoyed by more experienced palates.

Rarely seen as a single malt, which allows independent bottlers to present this spirit to whisky lovers, Dailuaine spirit is heavy and meaty thanks to the long fermentation period, quick distillation and the use of stainless steel in the condensers.
Based in Aberlour in Speyside, Dailuaine was once the largest distillery in the region and, although that’s no longer the case today, capacity was increased by 25% in 2012.
