A 15-year-old Highland single malt Scotch whisky from The Dalmore, presented at 49.1% ABV. As a single malt, it is made from malted barley at one distillery, and this age statement indicates the youngest whisky in the bottle has matured for at least 15 years.
For a novice drinker, this style is generally associated with a fuller, richer profile than many lighter malts, with more concentration from time in oak. The higher bottling strength may also make the flavours feel more intense, so a small splash of water can help open it up.
