This specially crafted whisky has been expertly made to be the perfect accompaniment to the finest of cigars.
Matured initially in American white oak ex-bourbon casks and 30 year old Matusalem oloroso sherry butts, it is then finessed in premier cru Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques.
IWSC Awards Tasting Note: Nose is made up of a concentration of fruits and nuts where peach and plum feature. Light toasty notes and fresh, clean vanilla. Elegant balance and smooth texture. Soft and gentle in the mouth with mature characters. Nuts and fruits balance well and well supported by fine oak. Super soft, gentle finish.
In 1839, Alexander Matheson searched for the perfect distillery location, but his criteria were not the same as others. Some had already chosen to build their distilleries in the Speyside valley, due to its established transport links and more hospitable climate. But Matheson was not swayed by creature comforts. His only concern was where he could find the best natural resources to make the finest whisky. So he settled on an isolated area on the banks of the Cromarty Firth, laid bare to the harsh winds of the North Sea. On this wild land Matheson started from scratch, building everything from warehouses to railways. Matheson forged his own path and by doing so ensured The Dalmore would always have its own unique character and taste.
