Dalmore King Alexander III – Ratings and reviews – Whiskybase
Many complain that something is missing and that it is too simple. Also because of. Some of the 40% are moaning. But I have to say NO, it still comes across very well. A great whisky if it weren’t for the price. Because the PLV doesn’t fit at all. The oldest barrel definitely not older than 10 to 13 years. And then colored. Phew. Sorry Dalmore.

Nose
You can find your way around here immediately. It is slightly relaxed and flatters with subtle notes of sherry. It remains fruity and pleasantly soft. Dry nutty direction and sweet tobacco in a real leather pouch. A solid nose. Respect.

Taste
Immediately you have absolutely extra dry dark fruits with a slightly creamy but rather thin body on the palate. In the mouth it looks much older than on the nose. Dark berries keep the taste buds awake. Actually, I like that a lot. Can’t say exactly why.
If I can get it anywhere for <100EUR, I’ll strike. Might become a house whisky. -
Finish
Medium long and quickly gone, …. unfortunately! A little cocoa and liquorice are left over. Very inconspicuous, but always sweet. Already OK.
