Dallas Dhu 43 Year Old 1979 Private Collection (2023) is an extraordinarily rare Speyside single malt Scotch whisky from the silent Dallas Dhu Distillery, which closed its doors in 1983. Distilled on 8th June 1979, this exceptional expression spent over four decades resting in a single refill American hogshead (#1404) before being bottled on 11th January 2023 by Gordon & MacPhail for their prestigious Private Collection – Lost Distilleries Recollection Series #2. Only 155 hand-blown crystal decanters exist, capturing the final echoes of a lost Speyside icon.
