Description
Launched in late 2008 to replace the previous 12 year old, this single malt from the Dalmore distillery is a toasty, coffee-rich dram with beautifully spice notes and a thick mouthfeel!
The Dalmore 12 year old, with its intricate aromas and flavours is recognised as a whisky with character far beyond its age.
Complex yet balanced, the Dalmore 12 year old is the epitome of the Dalmore house style.
Wood Portrait:
Matured for an initial nine years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, the spirit is then divided for it's final flourish where one half remains in the bourbon barrels while the other half is transferred to 30 year old Matusalem oloroso sherry butts before they are reunited to create this phenonenal whisky.
Distillery: Dalmore
Alness, Scotland
For over 150 years, The Dalmore has set the standard in multi cask maturation.
The Dalmore house style derives from a close and trusted relationship that was forged with sherry house González Byass over 100 years ago.
The rare casks, which have previously held 30 year old Matusalem oloroso sherry, are exclusive to The Dalmore. These casks enrich the signature chocolate and orange character of our whisky with rich and nutty flavours.
