Shackleton Blended Malt Scotch Whisky
80 proof NAS Blended Malt Dalmore (White Makai) Alness, Scotland $30
Nose

Fruity and light with notes of pear, citrus (orange), and a hint of camphor or menthol. Fresh and refreshing with a delicate floral quality.

Palate

Buttery and creamy with a sweet profile. Honey notes emerge after water, with a smooth, gentle warmth across the tongue.

Finish

Warming finish with oak notes. Buttery intensity returns on the back of the tongue with clover notes on the exhale.

Above average
A approachable and well-crafted blended malt with compelling historical provenance that delivers smooth, fruity, and buttery character at an excellent price point.
