Photo ©2015 by Mark Gillespie.This 1997 bottling from the long-closed Dallas Dhu distillery in Speyside has a nose that is light, floral, and grassy with green apples, a hint of spearmint, honey, and a touch of smoke. The taste starts off creamy and smooth at first, then turns peppery with notes of lemon pepper, honey, coconut, vanilla, and a hint of smoked salmon. The finish is long, tart, and floral with a hint of mint. Excellent! (November, 2015)
