The Dalmore - Cigar Malt - 40%

Cask:

Sherry.

Colour:

Deep, golden mahogany.

Nose:

Firm and positive. An outstanding array of malty congeners explode in a complex, distinguished manner. Elegant and refined. Pleasant notes of citrus, heavy fruits flaunt themselves in a stylish but forceful bouquet - yet an even balance prevails as the softest tones complete this gallery of aromas.

Palate:

The strong malty flavours tantalise the tongue - covering it with a cloak of classic flavours, which linger long the mouth. This outstanding taste is a perfect accompaniment with the finest tobacco - both compliment each other. However, to fully appreciate these fine attributes time must be allowed in the mouth - the repository of knowledge and fulfilment. A multitude of flavours rise to the occasion and generate a glowing aftertaste.

Finish:

Chocolate. A hint of toast. Charcoal, oak.

Hmmm...I haven't tried the cigar malt, but the Dalmore 12 year is one of the best values in a single malt, bar none.

Hard to find that much quality for 30 bucks in single malt scotch.

750ml sells for 35.99 at local Bev Mo, 3 bucks more than the 12 year.

I was gifted a bottle of this a while back. Got to agree, by itself it is rather forgetful but when paired with a good cigar it is very good.

Dalmore 12 year old is my normal Scotch of choice, runs $32 a bottle here.
