Sounds magical? No wonder, because these Best Drams are the work of Michel Reick, who as a whisky druid makes the magic of handpicked casks accessible to connoisseurs. Five newcomers make magical moments of enjoyment possible this week.
The new Best Drams have had between 6 and 15 years to develop their exquisite aromas. The single cask bottlings open up exciting perspectives for whisky fans on distilleries from the Isle of Islay, Speyside and the Highlands - in combination with the classic bourbon barrel or aromatic (sweet) wine casks.
The Dalmunach 2016/2022 matured in First Fill Amarone Hogshead. The Italian top wine is pressed from dried grapes. This process gives it intense, heavy aromas that leave delicious traces in the fruity-sweet profile of the Speysider.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Fruity with bright red cherries, white currants and blackberries combined with malty sweetness.
Palate: Malty sweetness is complemented by a little oak and a pleasant minimal bitterness that transitions to fruit notes of cherries and blackberries.
Finish: Herbal notes, becoming drier, fruity sweet towards the end.

]]> Dalmunach is a relatively young Speyside distillery in Carron, located on the former Imperial distillery site and part of the Pernod Ricard group. It is likely that much of the production will be used for Chivas Regal blending and that single malts from Dalmunach will tend to be rarer.
