Launched in late 2008 to replace the previous 12 year old, this single malt from the Dalmore distillery is a toasty, coffee-rich dram with beautifully spice notes and a thick mouthfeel. Very rich for a 12 year old.
A warm coffee house in Seattle; roasting beans, the oily nuttiness in a fine espresso, there are little notes of malt and cereal and butter from the pastry counter with rich orange from the fruit bowl on the counter.
Notes of Seville marmalade and triple sec with winter spices and fruitcake. Zesty cocoa and milk chocolate.
Medium, oranges.
En ganska tjock/oljig doft. Toffifee finns där, margarin, rostade mandlar, nötter, sherry och en lätt doft av egenpressad apelsin/fruktjuice. Något spritig i smaken men efter en liten skvätt vatten försvinner den nästintill helt. Mild, sherry, träig, ljus choklad, sälta och en god kryddighet. Minst en hundring för dyr tyvärr.
all you need is a drop of water and this whisky is just fine.. but yeah it's kinda overpriced!
Orange zest, espresso oils. It's not bad at all. I like the color. It smells really good. Smooth dram. A tiny bit medicinal, which is not for me. However there is a lot of aroma and a neat combination of flavors, i'd like to taste a more aged version of this to see if these flavors overpower the alcohol a bit more. It's not bad at all.
Can't believe I actually bought it... what a huge disappointment. My friends did warn me about its poor quality and ridiculous price but I did not listen. It tastes like sweetened ink with almost no finish. I really wish they could refund my money.
It's a cheap-tasting whisky with a premium visual presentation.
