A friend of mine was gifted a bottle of 12 year Dalmore single malt scotch.

Fortunately, he doesn't like whiskey so he gave it to me

Oh my god, sweet nectar, liquid gold, honey crafted in the heavens, beautiful and no hangover!

I really would like another bottle but that is a very expensive habit, supermarket's usually seem to offer best value if they are on special offer however I was wondering if anybody knew of a better place to buy some and can give some reccomendations

Thanks in advance

Nice!

I do love a Dalmore.

Normally, I just wait for special offers at supermarkets. It also means that I don't keep buying bottles!

The best value in whisky is to be had in independent bottlings in my experience. I always get cask strength where possible, certainly would never buy anything under 46% abv. The Signatory 100 proof series is great value in my experience, likewise anything that Cadenheads sell.

My favourite online whisky shop is Tyndrum, but I've bought from Master of Malt, Whisky Exchange and Royal Mile Whiskies plenty of times too. Worth shopping around because a lot of them offer 10% off your first purchase.

If you like Dalmore then you'll probably like Tomatin, Aberlour, Deanston, Balvenie, Glendronach and Dalwhinnie.

Unrelated to the topic buy my best mate recently turned 30, and his favourite tipple is a Dalmore. I got it from amazon on a deal and I'm sure it was 70-ish down from £85.

Being my best mate though, it couldnt just be a simple gift and I got it welded into a cage so that he can look at it, but not taste hehe
