The Dalmore 12 Year Highland Single Malt

The Dalmore 12 Year Old, with its intricate aromas and flavors, is recognized as a whisky with character far beyond its age. This was Andrew Mackenzie's original masterpiece and stood apart from the norm of the day. At a time when it was standard practice to mature whisky for no more than 6 years, Andrew Mackenzie demonstrated his pioneering character by doubling the maturation period. His boldness truly paid off, as The Dalmore 12 Year Old still stands apart as an exceptional whisky today, as it did then.

Matured for an initial nine years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, the spirit is then divided for its final flourish. One half remains in the bourbon barrels, while the other is transferred to exclusive 30-year-old Gonzalez Byass Matusalem Oloroso sherry butts before they are reunited to create this phenomenal whisky.

The 12 has aromas of citrus fruits, chocolate, and aromatic spices. The palate has citrus, oloroso sherry, and vanilla pod. The finish is characterized by roasted coffee and chocolate notes.
