Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve Single Malt. Highlands, Scotland. ABV: 40.00%. Tasted at Laneway Lounge, $20.
Colour: Really deep browny amber colour
Nose: Quite a strong smell like fresh fruitcake.
Palate: Sweet. Smooth, oily & coats the mouth with flavour.
Finish: Quite long flavours, soft heat though.
Comments: With a name like “Cigar Malt” I was expecting big smokey scents and flavours. As it turns out, with the sugary sweetness I guess it’s probably more suited to drinking whilst smoking a cigar, to balance out the smokey cigar flavours.
