I am a Dalmore fan, that is not a mistery to anyone by now. I try to get every new release (if it is humanly affordable), and they seem to have heard the critics that said that Dalmore were releasing too many 40%abv expressions. That is why, this 14yo, Pedro Ximenez finesse is a great gesture by the "Stagg" Distillery, who has given us a 43.8%abv dram. Tawny color. On the nose, your classic beautiful Dalmore. Peachesn figs, dark chocolate. Rum and raisins, cotton candy and cappuccino. Very fruity with a typical Dalmore note of school glue. After the first sip, the aroma changed into marshmallow, honey and tobacco. Three milk cake. On the palate, nice full flavor. Sawdust, jam, cherries and red fruits overall. Marshmallows. Very winey with a sulphur gunpowder note. Aftertaste also offers a fully, complex sensation. Herbal, sawdust, hay, cinnamon and ginger. A dry finish, some tobacco and salty notes. A little bitter. Overall, i believe this is 85% similar to the Cigar Malt, which is my favorite of the core range, i believe it to be even better than the King Alexander III. If i make that statement, you can only get the conclusion that i really, really liked this one. A beautiful, very complex dram, my score for it is 92 over 100.
