Released for the Friends Of The Classic Malts in 2013, the Dalwhinnie Triple Whisky Matured Edition was matured in charred American hogsheads, American oak hogshead and European oak casks before it was bottled at 48% ABV. The core range Dalwhinnie 15 is a bit boring for me and thats pretty much all I've tried from them, but this rarity was surprisingly good and that extra couple of percentage ABV really helps it shine.
In classic Australian style, this whisky has absolutely rippled flavour out of its cask. However, while I was expecting spiky youth in the spirit and the abv, it drinks with a maturity and ease that belies these facts. I have since bought two bottles. Absolutely delicious and as good, if not better, than it’s Scotch peers
