Diageo Launches 2023 Distillers Edition Collection
Diageo North America has announced the launch of the 2023 Distillers Edition collection in the U.S.
The Distillers Edition collection is an annual release of limited edition Single Malt Scotch Whiskies that are double matured in different types of casks. This year’s Distillers Edition collection consists of six expressions from distilleries across Scotland: Cragganmore, Dalwhinnie, Glenkinchie, Lagavulin, Oban, and Talisker.
Cragganmore Distillers Edition (40% ABV)
“The juicy Cragganmore, port-seasoned casks build sweet wine and fruity complexity, balanced with oaky vanilla spices and a hint of cocoa.”
SRP: $85.00
Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition (43% ABV)
“The exotic Dalwhinnie, in which satisfying hints of tropical fruits and peppery spices, blend seamlessly with warm nuts and honey using Oloroso-seasoned casks.”
SRP: $90.00
Glenkinchie Distillers Edition (43% ABV)
“The sophisticated Glenkinchie is finished in Amontillado-seasoned casks. Striking a balance between light grape sweetness and warming wood-spice with hints of rich dried fruits.”
SRP: $85.00
Lagavulin Distillers Edition (43% ABV)
“The mighty Lagavulin, in which the rich sweetness from Pedro Ximenez-seasoned casks is beautifully integrated with the crescendo of dark smokiness, salt and oak-spice.”
SRP: $125.00
Oban Distillers Edition (43% ABV)
“The smooth Oban, delicately paired with Montilla Fino-seasoned casks for a sweet creamy-smooth enhancement to the fruity and salty Oban style.”
SRP: $95.00
Talisker Distillers Edition (45.8% ABV)
“The enriched Talisker, Amoroso- seasoned casks impart a wonderfully rounded and luscious, fruity sweetness, complementing the familiar crisp, dry peat-smoke and pepperiness.”

The 2023 Distillers Editions are now available at brick and mortar and online retailers across the U.S.

Seems there is no more vintage?
Unfortunately, that seems to be the case.
Update – Here’s the official word from Diageo:
“Confirming Diageo did drop the date of distillation and bottling from the new labels. For more context: The collection has always been an NAD (no age disclosure) range. Removing the distillation, bottling year and batch numbers allows for focus on the true benefits. There has been no change to the liquid, and the quality craftsmanship, prestige among audiences and liquid credentials from the last few decades continue to speak for itself.”
