Description

The Dalmore 12 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (70cl / 40%) exemplifies timeless Scottish artistry from the revered Dalmore Distillery. Matured initially in American white oak ex-bourbon casks for supple vanilla and honey notes, it receives a masterful finish in rare Oloroso sherry casks—some over 30 years old—infusing opulent layers of dark chocolate, Seville orange marmalade, and aromatic spices. The nose unfurls with captivating warmth: sticky toffee, ripe plums, roasted coffee beans, and a whisper of nutmeg, all laced with citrus zest and sherry sweetness. On the palate, a full-bodied symphony emerges—velvety textures of gingerbread, chestnut honey, raisins, and praline, tempered by baking spices, cinnamon, and subtle white pepper. It glides into a long, elegant finish, dry yet lingering with orange peel, toasted oak, and faint herbal freshness, revealing exquisite balance and refinement. Housed in its classic bottle, this principal expression captivates connoisseurs, ideal for neat contemplation or enriching classic serves.
