The Dalmore 40

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 40%

Score: 97 Points

The color is light caramel, and the nose is orange peel, raisins, dates, and a touch of brown sugar. The taste starts off with a cinnamon kick that fades to a lingering sweetness with a hint of brandy, along with mango and other tropical fruits. The finish is long, smooth and complex with a Chardonnay-like sweetness…the orange peel returns with slight hints of almonds.
