Went to a Del Bac tasting tonight with their brand ambassador. Tried several of their expressions and I can say that each of their expressions has a unique flavor profile.
The classic is nice but reminds me of other American single malts like Stranahans or Westland. Good stuff but doesn’t stand out like the Dorado.
Immediately reminded of heating up apple cider on the stove top. A couple dashes of cloves, allspice, cinnamon, and a splash of bourbon.
That chest warmth, spices, and vanilla.
I get Speyside-like caramel, nutty Sherry (even though it isn’t sherry finished) dried grass, and dense homemade bread...almost banana or zucchini bread.
I’m a huge huge fan of the Dorado, but it is nice tasting what Hamilton is capable of without the smoke.
