Hats off to the guys at Dalmore, prob the best 15yo for the money!
I will not shy away from saying that I am a novice reviewer and that my entry into the world of whisky appreciation has only just begun, yet this is such a delightful drop that I wanted to convey my thoughts. I started some months ago, aided and abetted by my wife, into a whisky journey; starting with simple single malts of tender years and working our way outwards to singles of greater years. A simple plan born out of an attempt to train our palettes and appreciation first, before moving on to the more complex territory of blended malts and even older years! The Dalmore found its way to my door following a 12 year old Auchentoshan (triple distilled) and, despite my fondness for the smoothness and depth of the former, the Dalmore was something else altogether; the Auchentoshan almost felt thin by comparison, such is the richness and fruit-packed nature of this perfectly balanced whisky. Not overly sweet, it has a pure vanilla and honey fragrance, backed up with cherry, cinnamon, sticky marmalade and the faintest of smoke finishes that is absolutely superb! Smooth, yet characterful, complex yet rounded, this is something I will look forward to drinking again and would recommend that you seek it out....now to track down a bottle of Dalmore's King Alexander III!
Well, for the age and money, probably one of my first choices out of any whiskey on the market, also one of my first choices out of the Dalmore range! Expect quality and rich wonderful flavors such as Christmas-cake, raisins, dark cherries, cinnamon and nutmeg. The smell is easy, because it smells like Christmas, YUM! If your new to this whiskey and don't like it, well you wont like whiskey at all, so dont bother writing a review! Dalmore it worth every penny, this particular one beats a lot of 18 year old whiskies in every shape and form. Dalmore never really fluctuates in flavor as it is something I can rely on as a mouthwatering whiskey, ooh yeah, fifth bottle in!
Apparently, judging by the negative reviews? I am lucky to have bought one of a good batch. Holy crap this is amazing. Got introduced to the Dalmore with the 12 and reading about the 15 got me intrigued. And I am very glad I bought this bottle today.
I've had a couple of bottles of this over the last couple of years and actually ranked it as my favourite whisky with its sweet caramel flavour and it's smooth finish. However, I received a bottle this Christmas as a present and it is bad! The sweetness has all but disappeared along with the smoothness. This batch should have been rebranded as something else as it certainly isn't the Dalmore 15 I have come to know and love. The problem now is, do I ever buy a bottle of this again (at £50-£60 a bottle) if there is a chance it's going to be the same as this!
