Description

This Dalmunach was finished in an Amontillado cask for 22 months. One of Scotland's most modern malt distilleries, constructed by Chivas Brothers in 2014. It stands on the site of the former Imperial distillery in Speyside (dismantled the year prior), and is named after a water pool in the local area.

Nose
Opening on cherries, berries and strudel, before expressing flor sherry nuttiness through cashews, hazelnuts and leafy tobacco. Werther's Originals form a backbone whilst berry pavlova, and vanilla buttercream provide support. Simple and likeable. Reduction offers gingerbread and darker cherry notes alongside a yoghurt/fool creaminess.
Palate
Hedgerow berries and strawberry balsamic sit with cherry cordial, and blackberry coulis (providing some fruity oiliness). Nougat and meringue are joined by vinous qualities which again include tobacco leaf. Water here results in substantial dryness. It does however reveal something of the original maturation cask – toffee, vanilla and light notes of char.
Finish
Quite tight and grippy and all on drying oak and sherry wine tannins. Too much cask bite at the end of an otherwise very pleasant Amontillado finish.
