Beinn Dubh The Black Whisky

I got married a little over 5 years ago. My friends bought me this dark malt telling me how good it was. I tried it, unlike most whisky I have sampled and that is many this malt stuck in my mind all these years. The hotel had a bottle and a half. They had none after the wedding was over. I tried but couldn't find any anywhere until now. Hope you keep some on the shelf. I will need more over the coming years. Fantastic flavours.

having bought previous black whiskys and drunk many of them this isnt the best one ive tasted cu duhb takes that crown this is still a nice whisky….. considering that the original goes for tens of thousands and is now quiet rare, you have to wonder how these love it hate it whiskys ever get made……but the reviews never seem to kill this whiskys sale….. gorgeous and always nice to see it do so well

It would be fun if it was half the price. It makes a good aperitif. It is otherwise inauthentic, and indifferent. Be warned.

Awful smell and taste, I will parfume drink red label, anytime ouat is awful whiskey.

I have finally found a scotch whisky I do not like. I expected this dark whisky to explode with flavors. Instead, it is flat and tastes like water used to wash out the barrels.

I only have two whiskies in my collection of around 70 which are not good. This is one. It’s akin to sickly cold tarry coffee. Left me needing a pint of mint enthused water to try and save my poor tongue. Steer clear. Rotten.

Not keen. It is all smoke & mirrors. Just found the whole taste rather hollow, completely without depth. Agree with others, artificial colour. Glad I only bought a miniature.

The colour of this whisky comes from E150 caramel colouring. Being described as “thick”, along with the ridiculously dark colour, suggests there’s a stupid amount of it, too. This is not something a discerning, picky customer would buy; the product relies on people newer to their whisky journey, and hopes to lure them in with its dark depths. There are many superb whiskies at this price point that don’t disrespect themselves... this is not one of them.

It is the very best young whiskey I’ve ever tasted!!!
It has a very complex taste, but without loosing its whisky essence.
It should be drunk straight, preferably after cooling the glass by itself.

It's awful. Really awful. Pure caramel, with almost nothing else. Cracked the bottle open with a few friends, none of whom liked it. If I could return it I would.
Did I say it was awful?
