Anyone tried this? I am not sure if this is a gimmicky drink or what at only $30 a bottle.

This is what Hi Time Wine cellars says about it....

DALMORE CIGAR MALT 750
Stock Status: In Stock
Our Price: $31.99

A bling-bling dram. Goes wonderfully with cigars! (and fur coats and gold jewellery).

NoseGentle smokiness like chestnuts roasting on an open fire. Emphatic `box of chocolates' aroma: Orange cream pralines in black chocolate.

PalateTexture and flavour of chocolate mousse cake. Powdered cocoa. Then juicy maltiness and understated vanilla-pod dryness.

FinishBiscotti: chocolate and plain. A hint of toast. Charcoal, oak.

Never had this one, but the one "Cigar Malt" I've tried I did not care for.

sounds like a truffle, not a scotch!

Not one of my favorite scotches; a little heavier than traditional single malts. Regular Dalmore is better (to me), but neither are scotches that I would recommend.

I think it's good if you're in a social setting, but not really a great whisky for sitting at home with. It does taste a lot better if you are having a cigar with it though....it's not that great by itself.
