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.
Very smooth easy favors. Continued to please through the mild aftertaste.
Dalwhinnie 15 is just so smooth and balanced. It is sweet and soft, and great to give those who say they don't like Scotch. I'm on my third bottle. Rich with the toffee and honey influence.
Honey, vanilla and toffee are the flavors I liked it, but after it a gentle smoke is coming - I didn't like it at all. I think, a sweet and a smoke are two components that can not be combined. It's like drink a sweet tea with smoked salmon.
Tastes great with cookies.
Pour three fingers in a crystal scotch glass, add three ice cubes and walk away: good stuff ???
