I always add a touch of water to my whiskey, The Dalmore lends itself to this. I found it smooth to the tongue with a peppery finish. I especially enjoyed holding it in my mouth and allowing the flavors to build. As for the price, I think all scotch whiskey is over priced but that is life.
I have had Dalmore 15 a few times, sometimes it is awesome and then the next bottle is meh. I really wish I knew how to pick the good bottle ahead of time. This bottle was great! First sniff, "ooh, is that some butterscotch?" a bit of resin, but a good round nose. Add a drop of water and the umami comes right out, doubling down on that butterscotch. It was great! I almost want to ask if there is a chance the wrong scotch was put into the dram bottle. With a sipping it some nice honey/butterscotch notes, a good orange tartness, and it filled the mouth with a great, round, warm feeling. Aftertaste was good too, left me with just the right amount of happiness, and the saltiness I attributed to the butterscotch flavor lingers. Well done! If it was consistently like this, I would buy a bottle! And then worry about drinking it too fast. Final Note: I am doing the 2015 advent calendar. As a result, I get one drink at it to decide if I like it enough to buy more. Sometimes I need to drink something three or four times to make up my mind. Thus, my rating is based on a one-time drink experience.
This was the first dram of the Advent Calendar we just received as a Christmas gift. A fine way to start 24 tastings. I never understand reviews that talk about this flavor or that flavor. I just know what I like and I liked this Dalmore expression very much. I've had Dalmore before and this is a worthy addition to those I've tasted earlier.
I guess I got lucky judging by the posts complaining about quality issues. This was absolutely brilliant. Very smooth. Very nice. I could drink it all year long.
Very nice, mellow, nice nose, Easy to drink.
