Reviews for Dalwhinnie 15 Year Old
The Emporer's new dram
I always wonder how many 'train spotters' just say this is great because of it has a reputation in some quarters. Oh yeah, tasting notes, what a load of old cobblers; nectarine and custard, yeah ok and a dash of emerald and smidgen of tiredness.. please spare me.
I personally believe a lot of people like this because its inoffensive; it has always disappointed me, it is very neutral, safe ground but crucially, for me, lacks any real character its just not really worth any critical comment about as dull and bland as it gets. There are much better highlands out there. Oh, and why can no one spell definitely properly!? (yes, I'm talking about you, Mr previous reviewer).

very nice and flawless
Mellow, round, subltle. Honey, lemon rind, tea, medium finish with a slightly smoky flavor. simple flavors but pleasant and flawless. I would definately buy another bottle.

wow...
Best I've had, a little bit of a step up in price but well worth it.
Learning to drink scotch, this will keep me coming back...

Dalwhinnie 15 year Whiskey
Well I had a shot for my 53rd Birthday when I was in Loch Laggon, on the 11th May a couple of weeks ago. I stopped drinking whiskey because of heart-burn! But a shot of Dalwhinniw 15yr Whiskey was SO Smoove that I was shocked how good it tasted. Even my wife had a little and she was shocked too & said: "Should I were to buy any Scottish Whiskey, it should be Dalwhinnie 15yr whiskey as it is worth the cost!" But wait, I have been told 24yr old Dalwhinnie Whiskey is even better and smoover!! :) Mr PCD Shaw from South Africa.

good++
A very nice dram which delivers all that the tasting notes claim except I didn't get the gentle smoke they promised however the malt & fruit are outstanding. My only complaint was the 29 year old is so special for the soft notes of heather which are so pleasing unfortunately not so present here but that's ok, a nice addition to anyone's collection.
