Thanks to /u/twiddleDD for this sample.

This is yet another continuation of my ongoing series that I’m calling “Scotch Malts, Wife’s Selection”, in which my wife goes through my backlog of SMWS (Scotch Malt Whisky Society) samples that I haven’t reviewed yet, pours them blind, and then I review it blind.

Dalmore leaves me with a question as what to write.

It’s a distillery in which they have placed themselves in a high end whisky space on the whole marketing mix. I considered quoting a bunch of Peter Gabriel’s “Games without Frontiers” instead of getting into it, given today’s whisky’s name is Dalmore SMWS 13.47 “It’s a knockout”.

And if that song isn’t stuck in your head when you read it, you should go listen to it.

Back to Dalmore. They release whiskies that are not typically cask strength and finished or matured in ex-sherry casks. Yes, there…
