“It's much like the highlands in the winter. At first taste it seems unforgiving, almost rough. Softened by a drop of water and a bit of persistence it soon gives up it's secrets. Like a land that doesn't want to be seen it is spectacular if you give it time. The flavours of harshness give way to untold beauty. The foremost maltiness gives into a sweet flavour that coats the tongue and reminds you of hill walks in the cold. As far as a whisky goes, it's one you need to give yourself to rather than wait for it to give to you. Like the hills that surround the distillery, put the effort in and they shall reward you. ”

Description

Dalwhinnie Winter's Gold is a 2015 addition to the Highland distillery's range inspired by the chilly climate up in the remote part of Scotland where their single malt Scotch whisky is distilled - as the label remarks, it was "Crafted by the Cold". It's made only with spirit that has been distilled between October and March, and interestingly enough, they suggest that you try serving this expression frozen!

Nose

Oak spice, pear skins, golden syrup and gristy malt. A touch of peach polish and chewy, sticky toffee. From the freezer it's fruitier, more green apple, apple sauce, toffee apple, sultana, even redcurrant.

Palate

Very honeyed with warming peppery spices, Big Red cinnamon. From the freezer the honey is kept in check much more, as are the spices. Plenty of apple flesh and orange peel.

Finish

Allspice, nutmeg and smoky malt. From the freezer the finish is more about the spicy cinnamon and peppercorn heat that's found on the palate at room temperature.

Overall

An assertive, spicy, honeyed Dalwhinnie with enough sweetness and character to be served straight from the freezer (as intended).

Excellent smooth introduction to single malt

Smooth, mellow easy sipping..

Colin James Mar 28, 2021

Splendid

A remarkable offer, previously unknown to me. I will try it from the freezer - with ice or not? Beautiful flavours and aroma. We have the 15 yo which was on offer, so a speculative choice. Might buy another!

Master of Malt Customer Feb 21, 2021

Not quite there.

Not great at room temperature. Harsh raw alcohol fume masks the flavours. Better with ice. A drop of water softened it and opened some sweetness. From the freezer it was warming but lost a lot of the character of the 15yr version, (which is excellent). Ok on discount at £25. If it’s full price buy the 15yr instead.

Disappointing

Was bought this as my love of the classic 15 yo Dalwhinnie is no secret. Bit this was very disappointing, and not to my taste. Sharp, but lacking in taste. It's fine but how it is more expensive than the classic I'll never understand

Craig Ellis Jan 17, 2021

A great find, couldn't be happier.

I received this as gift over the Christmas period. What a great surprise this was. A decent malt from a fine stable. The flavour is subtle, slightly sweet, the taste is easy to savour and it's easy to drink. It's also as smooth as a dolphins todger. I will buy another bottle and highly recommend.
