Dalwhinnie is the single malt distillery renowned for its great value, gentle whiskies. Full of sticky sweetness and a meaty body typical of worm tub distilleries, the Scotch made here was always a blender’s favourite but its own single malts shine too with their flawless, clean, crisp profile. Dalwhinnie 15 Year Old is a standout that has been Dal-winning its way into our hearts for some time now. The Highland single malt was aged in a combination of bourbon and oloroso sherry casks and has just a smidge of smoke running through it to add depth. Delicious stuff.
Aromatic, toffee, fruit salad, lush nectarine, custard. Floral, apple blossom, honeysuckle. Apple peels, pear, touch of smoke.
Malty. Walnuts steeped in manuka honey with vanilla sponge. Gentle smoke weaves its way through the cereal with a touch of spice.
Long, malty, walnut, almond.
Delightful sipping whiskey. Silky and smooth as butter. Restrained notes of smoke and peat. Warmth spread quickly from my chest through all my fingers and toes. Bought for me as a birthday drink but will treat myself to bottle today.
Great flavor warm finish
I used the last 250ml to soak a medium toast American Oak to add to a aging a test batch of Braggot made from Golden Promise malted barley, Chilliwack thistle honey and a dry ale yeast.
Perfect smoky finish. Not rough at all. Found it all too easy to drink. Will most definitely buy again very soon.
Not a fan...bought this as it stated its got smoky finish of surprising intensity (and i love peat), it just wasn't there. Hints of honey, rather weird palate, quick dry finish. No clue why high scores...Poured me some Laddy instead.
