The key characteristic of Dimple is how light and understated it is. The nose is floral and toffee and caramel sweet, underscored by a dry woody note. The flavor has a medium-bodied, butterscotch and toffee character, with a light, but still spicy pepper note and a tinge of dry wood. The flavor unfolds off the pepper, leaving a restrained afterglow with light warmth. While the brand disappeared in the UK (until the advent of Haig Club), Dimple was stilling selling over a million cases by the millennium when its key markets were South Korea, Germany, Greece and the US. It’s all makey-up marketing stuff and I can think of no reason at all why it should have been commemorated in the 1980’s other than a Whiskey Marketing executive thought it was a good idea at the time.

Overall: This starts very strong, flush with classic sherry aromas and dense candy-like caramels but then appears confused on the tongue and downright absent on the finish. In other words, it promises much to the nose but fails to deliver.

These were the beginnings of a great distilling dynasty for the Haigs and Steins, though it was John Haig, John’s grandson, who secured his family’s name in Scotch whisky legend in 1824 with the build of Cameronbridge distillery in Fife, and the founding of John Haig & Co. In 1751 Robert’s great, great grandson, John Haig, married Margaret Stein and this union really cemented the family’s connection with Scotch whisky. The Stein family owned distilleries at Kilbagie and Kennetpans near Alloa in the Lowlands. When John Haig died suddenly in 1773, his father-in-law took his five sons on as apprentices at Kilbagie.

They’ll probably be getting used to the alcohol and the bite of the finish might be too much.
