Recently the Whiskey Tasters were lucky enough to get our hands on a bottle of The Dalmore King Alexander III. Now I could end this post with just typing wow!!! I won’t but I am telling you I could.
This was a really great scotch. From the first sip you can taste the quality that went into this scotch. The Dalmore had this mature in six different casks, which gives it so much flavor and depth. This is a scotch any level of whisky drinker would enjoy because of the rich flavors and how much difference each sip brings out.
Even the presentation of the box is impressive. Solid and opens to reveal the bottle inside and leaves you anticipating what’s to come.
As usual we won’t go into all the tasting notes, which you can read over at Masters of Malt, other than quickly. There are so many flavors and scents it can be a bit overwhelming at first but they do blend together very well and after a few tastes you will be impressed we can pretty much guarantee it. One thing I can say is how smooth it is. Easy on the palette and easy with the after taste.
For pricing it’s on the more expensive end of the scale for most people. A bottle of The Dalmore King Alexander III runs for about $300 Canadian and the SAQ and the LCBO. We all felt it was worth the price though and would add a bottle to our collections
