Dalmore 18 Year

The nose is quite unique- someone described it as soy sauce and although this is not it, it is the closest I can peg it to; there is a hint of something medicinal there. The palate is very sweet with light honey, dried figs, dates. It goes down smooth and warm with bitter-sweet aftertaste.

Really good hit on the floral side easy and fun to drink get a good taste of the cherry barrel .

The Dalmore 18 is matured for 18 long years just outside of Inverness, Scotland. Upon opening, I noticed the top of the box comes off and can be used as a stand for the bottle. The label has a nice blueish-purple color to it with a nice suede texture. The 18-year expression was matured in the finest ex-bourbon casks and Matusalem oloroso sherry casks hand picked by the genius Master Blender Richard Patterson. This marrying of casks creates a bold, complex, and robust whisky full of intense flavors and aromas. The Dalmore 18 is bottled at 43% ABV. Color: Rich Amber The nose consists of the classic Dalmore aromas of orange marmalade, dark chocolate, and toffee. Additionally, there are notes of candied fruits, caramel, and consists of a slight oakiness. The characteristics of these notes are extremely abundant. The palate is silky smooth full of the rich Dalmore notes of orange citrus, dark chocolate, coffee, candied red fruits, baking spices and oak along with a strong sherry flavor. The finish is long and warming with a strong sherry presence. Notes of dark chocolate, coffee, and oak lingers along with fading citrus notes.

Waxy walnuts and pipe tobacco, rich sherry and chocolate.
