Dalwhinnie 15 Year Old Single Malt. Highlands, Scotland. ABV: 43.00%. Tasted at The Royal Hotel, $15.
Colour: Amber. Sounds like a stripper’s stage name, so the accuracy of this description cannot be verified.
Nose: Sweet notes, faint wafts of leather. Perhaps a chesterfield.
Palate: Quite silky smooth and a subtle honey flavour, similar in some ways to the Glenmorangie Nectar D’Or from yesterday. Maybe a hint of mandarin? Definitely not Cantonese.
Finish: Doesn’t linger as long as the Nectar D’Or.
Comments: Quite drinkable, middle of the road. Added a few drops of water to see how that changed it, probably wouldn’t again – seemed to make the whisky too mellow.
