Description
Dalry Milk is a unique creation from the North British Distillery, located in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is a 16-year-old single grain Scotch whisky that combines the flavors of chocolate and whisky in a delightful way. The whisky is aged in a combination of oloroso and palo cortado casks, giving it a smooth, sweet, and chocolatey profile.
The name "Dalry Milk" is inspired by the Gorgie and Dalry area in Edinburgh, where the distillery is located. The whisky is described as a nostalgic tribute to the aromas and flavours that once filled the air around the distillery.
Unfortunately, Dalry Milk 16-Year-Old has been discontinued as of April 2025, following a request from a "chocolate company" regarding its branding. However, it remains a memorable and innovative product from the genius that is Master of Malt.
