Douglas Laing Provenance Dailuaine 2006 12 Year Old DL12912

This Provenance release from Douglas Laing is a 12-year-old Dailuaine Single Malt Scotch Whisky, distilled in March 2006 and bottled in October 2018. Matured in a single Sherry Butt, Cask DL12912, it was bottled at 46% ABV as part of Douglas Laing’s Provenance single-cask range. Only 419 bottles were produced. The bottling is presented without added colouring or chill filtration, preserving Dailuaine’s rich Speyside malt character alongside the dried-fruit and spice influence of sherry maturation. 

Food Pairing: Aged cheddar, roasted nuts, glazed pork, fruitcake, dark chocolate or bread pudding.

Tasting Notes: A full-bodied Speyside profile combining malt sweetness and sherry-cask richness, with dried fruit, warming spice and mature oak character.

Nose: Sweet malt, dried fruits and sherry notes with gentle spice and rich cereal character.

Palate: Rich and rounded with dried fruit, malt, warming spice and deeper sherry-cask sweetness.

Finish: Lingering malt and dried fruit with warming spice and a pleasantly dry oak character.

Serve: Enjoy neat at room temperature or add a few drops of water to open the sweeter fruit and malt notes.
