Medium amber color. The bouquet is warm, biscuity, sweet and fruity-ripe, especially redolent of white grapes. Mineral water brings out exotic scents of banana-nut bread, nutmeg, allspice, butter and walnuts. One of the two best bottlings of Dalmore I've encountered. The aftertaste is medium long, green pepper-like and a touch salty.
Mineral water brings out a sweet, supple maltiness.
Heavenly, succulent, lip-smacking, oaky sweet flavor. The midpalate and finish are toasty warm, slightly resiny, intensely grainy and a bit sweet. Another exciting, satisfying expression from this magnificent distillery. Aged in Oloroso Sherry casks and not run through the chill-filtering process that most single malts are subjected to. Medium amber color.
