Dailuaine

Speyside, Scotland · 1852'den beri

Dailuaine Distillery was founded in 1852 by Thomas Mackenzie in the Carron Valley near Aberlour, in the heart of Speyside, Scotland. The name derives from the Gaelic for 'green valley', a fitting tribute to the lush landscape that surrounds the site. One of Speyside's larger distilleries, Dailuaine has long served as a vital component in major Diageo blends, most notably Johnnie Walker. Its tall stills and lengthy fermentation produce a rich, fruity, and full-bodied spirit with notes of dark chocolate, dried fruit, and a gentle earthiness. Official single malt expressions appear under the Flora & Fauna label, though the distillery's true soul tends to live within the blending vats. Independent bottlers have long championed Dailuaine, releasing expressions that reveal the remarkable depth hiding behind this unsung Speyside giant. For those willing to seek it out, Dailuaine offers a quietly rewarding dram.
