Amber Room Review

Dalmore 1981 28 Years Old 44%

01 May 2026
88

Nose

Typical old sherry profile, sweet dark fruits & berries, oranges, citric, slightly salty, minimal smoke

Body

The nose is a lot better than the taste, as expected from the 44% making it a bit thin & lackluster, taste slightly peated

Finish

Medium finish, dark chocolates
