Dailuaine 'Adelphi' 2013 / 12 years old #302796 53.5%

Matured for 12 years in a refill Oloroso sherry hogshead, this Dailuaine opens with a nose of zesty lemon curd and Cointreau, softened by gentle liquorice, a whiff of old bookcase, caraway seeds, and dark chocolate. The palate is a rich medley of dessert flavours: chocolate-covered cherry, apple strudel, fresh mint, roasted pecans, and dulce de leche. Long, mouth-drying and lingering with complexity.
