About this deal
Well I can say that the cold weather conditions at the Dalwhinnie distillery, which will be cold for most of the winter due it being the highest distillery in Scotland at at 326 metres above sea level will have an affect on the distilled spirits flavour during the condensing stage of production. Pronounced ‘Stew-rah-dur’, meaning ‘helmsman’ in Scots Gaelic, our Stiùireadair Islay malt pays homage to the Bunnahabhain helmsman and our appreciation of the sea by which we are surrounded. An award-winning whisky - recently received the accolade of the gold medal at the 2021 Scotch Whisky Masters. Dalwhinnie Winter’s Gold is in the same vein as the 15 Year Old with aromas of flowers, honeyed with a hint of peat and green fruit – apples and fresh pear.

Craig Wilson, only selects casks laid during Scottish winter months to create a golden, rich single malt whisky. From the highest and coldest distillery in Scotland, Winter’s Gold pays homage to its homeland and is best served straight from the freezer.I have heard whispers that Lagavulin and Cragganmore are next in line to have no age statement whiskies added to their core ranges. Served straight from the freezer, it was delicious: rich, oily, with just a perfect amount of sweetness balanced with a drier edge at the back of the palate.
