Reviewed December 10, 2018 (edited December 31, 2018)Day 10. Dalmore Port. As you may know, I'm a sucker for Port finish, but so far the 2 non peated port finished whiskies I tried both have disappointed me (this and the other was Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban...but I might need to revisit that one outside of a Bar setting). The nose is very faint, bit of coffee bit of the usual malty notes, and some of my beloved dark fruits. Taste is equally disappointing. Dark fruits, a bit of honey, some coffee bitterness and the typical barley malt note that I tend to get from Dalmore. Not very exciting, not very delicious and all in all rather uninspiring. Aftertaste is a bit of bitterness and some fruit mixed in a non coherrent mess. So far, Dalmore fails to impress me. This is another failure. At least tomorrow is bound to be good...not sure if I can deliver a tasting note tomorrow though, got a dentist appointment, depending on how that goes....but with what's in store, the taste might be the same (tomorrow is Lagavulin 12 day). So yeah, cheers. I'm gonna pour me a glass of Laphroaig 10 to get a more interesting taste in my mouth.70.0 EUR per Bottle -

Reviewed December 7, 2018 (edited December 10, 2018)Quick Hit Tasting Notes Local liquor store had a Dalmore tasting. In non-optimal conditions, took some notes: Nose: light,fruity,grape, plums. Palate : soft, grape, wood, fruit, cinnamon. Finish: hot, pepper, wood, orange bitters. It’s okay. Preferred the 12 over this.The Wine Guy -
