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.
Fantastic dram for a very reasonable price. My new go-to has been found, a very smooth drop and a joy to drink.
My favourite Whisky.
From the nose I get simple fruit with a touch of dusty hay. A hit of smoke rising. The dram directly fills my palate with vanilla and a few dried floral notes. The finish lingers with a few ripe but semi-bitter pecans of all things. Like it...no, I love it. Simple with soft complexity.
It’s not challenging or complicated but it has five or six cracking flavours, pear, cinnamon, honey, vanilla and toffee
Drank 1st time today great taste and lively down the hatch.
