I must confess to a slighty negative impression of Dalmore. They seem to focus on producing ludicrously expensive whiskies... three bottles for $150,000+ each, which is just wrong because if you did actually buy that you would have to be crazy to actually drink it! So that grumble aside... the nose on their slightly more affordable 12 year old is sweet and attractive, with some malt and citrus and maybe some leather and tobacco. The taste is complex, raisins, fruit, spicey and some oak in the finish. The finish also has some of the same leather and tobacco notes as the nose. Complex and good... maybe I need to start saving the $150,000...
