Whisky Review - Dalmore Gran Reserva

Whisky-Review_Dalmore

This is a whisky review of Dalmore Gran Reserva, 40% (Highland)

There is no age stated on the bottle, but this whisky has matured 10 - 15 years. The casks used are 60% Oloroso Sherry casks and 40% white oak (bourbon) casks.

Colour:
Redgold

Nose, without water:
Warming

Nose, with water:
Dried fruit

Body:
Light

Mouth feel:

Smooth

Primary taste:

Sweet-bitter

Overall flavour:

Dried fruit, tobacco, raisins

Finish:

Short

Conclusion:

The dark colour comes from the sherry cask. I’m a bit disappointed as I had expected more body and a longer finish.
