The Dalmore 30 YO

Dalmore distillery was built in 1839 by Alexander Matheson, who immediately leased it to the Sunderland family, who ran it for over thirty years until 1869, when the lease was taken over by three Mackenzie brothers, Alexander, Charles and Andrew. For over 150 years, The Dalmore has set the standard in multi cask maturation. Hand selected casks, from the world's finest bodegas and wineries are expertly curated to create a sumptuous and layered whisky of legendary finesse. 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 are exclusive to The Dalmore. These casks enrich the signature chocolate and orange character of whisky with rich and nutty flavors.

The 2021 Edition started life in American white oak ex-Bourbon barrels and was then transferred into exquisitely rare 30 Year Old Tawny Port Pipes from Graham’s Port. The aged Tawny Port Pipes work in harmony with The Dalmore’s characteristic house style to create a truly masterful whisky that delivers stunning depth and a long, gripping finish. The release is a testament to the longstanding partnership between The Dalmore and Graham’s, allowing The Dalmore’s skilled whisky maker's access to the rarest of casks.

Aromas of candied orange peel, treacle toffee, Morello cherries and warm brioche fill the nose, complemented by notes of Black Forest gateau, Tarte Tatin, Victoria plums, Madagascan vanilla and shaved almonds throughout the palate.
