Or yes, even Dalmore that’s not overly winey. Good fun. Finish: long, increasingly on orange zest, yet never calling out for ice cubes. Comments: it’s cool, it’s charming, it’s unlikely—but it works. Right then, now we’re just waiting for a double maturation in orange wine ...

Dartigalongue 25 ans (40%, OB, Bas-Armagnac, 2018) As I just told a good friend in the US, saying Dartigalongue isn't any harder than pronouncing Bruichladdich or Bunnahabhain, is it? Anyway, in theory, this should be the 15 +10 years. Colour: golden amber. Nose: there, big juicy...
Dalmore 'The Trio' (40%, OB, travel retail, 1l, +/-2020) Crikey, I had hoped this series was named after jazz bands or something like that, but that's rather the number of different casks the whiskies have been treated with. Ouch! So this time, the 'trio' consisted in first fill...

Nose: yes, it speaks more clearly, with apple and plum juices, a hint of ham, and dried fruits like longans and jujubes. The aromas remain, however, quite moderate. Mouth: nothing to fault, it’s good, with honey and orchard fruits, plums for example. Finish: medium and somewhat ...
With water: this time again, it gets sweeter and fruitier on the palate, this time towards absinth ans pastis, with a lot of aniseed and liquorice, fennel, raw green pears… Finish: long, still tight and sharp. Aquavit in the aftertaste. Comments: not the easiest one. I would have ...
Now I believe the prices remain totally unjust, as this one's still available for 975€ at LMDW (no, we never, ever do any affiliation) while Macallan or Dalmore would price a comparable liquid, hopefully of similar quality, at one hundred times that amount without batting an eyelid (and...
Raisins, meat sauce, longans, goji, mango, dried pineapple, dried jujubes… O-M-G, as we used to say, indeed an ode to bottle aging (I'm sorry, Tom, Dick and Harry). This whisky was different when it was bottled, like it or not. Finish: pretty long, sublimely fruity. Comments...
a little sour. Comments: I utterly love Singapore and the Singaporeans (my brother used to live in Singapore and of course I used to visit him), but I'm not totally sure this is the best bottling they ever had in the Lion City. However, it's rather fine rum for sure. Panama remai...
