A Highland peaty expression that combines thick peat smoke influences with Glenturret’s fruity spirit profile. 84/100
A beautiful expression, quite complex but very drinkable. Lots going on in here but all very complementary the result is Baklava, buttery pastry, honey/syrup, nuts and gentle spices combined to perfection. 85/100
Reminiscent of the process and aromas of the washbacks and mash tun, grassy cereals, doughy yeast and stone fruits.
Well I guess malt-light highlights Glenmorangie’s delicate spirit and I did pick up on a bit of fruit and sugar here but this was much more fresh wood than a piece of cake for me. 80/100
A lovely mixture of sweet vanilla tablet and ashen peat embers. 87/100
Very rich and full of nutty and creamy vanilla toffee, that core tropicality is there as well as a distinct coastal influence. 86/100
An interesting and slightly smokey and coastal Highland single malt. Whilst still showing signs of youth the smoke here really isn’t powerful enough and I was left wishing for something with a little more punch or oomph. 80/100
Another vanillic sweet and fruity malt, this feels quite a bit younger and fresher, still some zest and spice present from the distillate. Some deeper notes and a beery/yeasty aroma to it once it had breathed – possibly some influence from the cask maturation. 82/100
Another quite light dram, of similar strength and also ex-Bourbon cask matured. remarkably the 5 years difference between this and the last were really not apparent. 83/100
Not much to write home about, soft subtle Dalwhinnie without too much character of flavour – and that’s at room temperature – if you want to buy this to drink it chilled save your pennies and buy Absolut Vanilla instead. 72/100
