About Ha Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition
Ha Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition is a premium Single Malt Scotch Whisky from the Highland distillery, produced by Diageo Americas at 43% ABV (86 proof), available in 750ml bottles for $71.24. This special release undergoes double maturation, with a second finish in Oloroso sherry casks that enhances its signature heather-honey profile with rich, grapey sweetness and spicy complexity, setting it apart from the standard 15-year-old expression. Lighter and more delicate than bolder Speysides, it offers approachable elegance with subtle smoke and fruit notes, making it ideal for whisky newcomers or those seeking a mellow, versatile sipper over peaty powerhouses. Compared to peers like Glenfiddich or Balvenie double-matured bottlings, it stands out for its clean, honeyed restraint and sherry integration, praised by Jim Murray as one of the best in its category, though some note variability across vintages. At this price, it's a strong value for quality-conscious buyers.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
The aroma bursts with rich honey, fresh sherry, and heather, complemented by tropical fruits like pineapple, papaya, and oranges, alongside hints of malt, vanilla, and subtle smoke. Notes of berries, grapefruit, and mint chocolate add layers of sweetness and freshness. A light grain or grassy effervescence rounds out the inviting profile.
👅 Palate
On the palate, it's light yet flavorful, like honey water with star fruit, cherries, and grapey sherry sweetness, balanced by oak spices, white pepper, and a touch of peat smoke. The mouthfeel is delicate and buttery, evolving to rancio, toffee, almonds, and baking spices with a clean mid-palate build. Water subdues sweetness, revealing more malt and earthiness.
✨ Finish
The finish is long, dry, and warming with citrus, cloves, cinnamon, oak, and a peaty punch, lingering sweetly with vanilla and subtle tannins.
