The Dalmore 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky, 70cl

Product Information

The flagship 12 year old from the Dalmore distillery with notes of spice and winter fruits. A fine dram. The Dalmore 12 year old is aged in bourbon barrels for the first nine years, after which half of the remaining spirit is aged for an additional three years in sherry butts that previously held Matusalem Oloroso sherry, while the balance continue their aging in previously used bourbon casks. Matusalem is a type of Oloroso sherry that is sweetened by the addition of a little Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry, which is produced from partially raisinated grapes and is intensely sweet and syrupy. To qualify as a Matusalem, the sherry must be produced from a solera with a blend averaging at least 30 years old. The name is derived from Methuselah, the grandfather of Noah, who, at 969 years of age, was the longest-lived person in the Old Testament.

Nose: Pretty richly sherried with some clear dry Oloroso notes, but also more sour, aceto balsamico notes that I associate with Pedro Ximènez sherry. Hints of fudge and toffee accompanied by orange zest and rum raisins. Finally some hessian. We’re off to a good start. An outstanding Highland Single Malt matured in American white oak ex-Bourbon casks, finished in rare and aged Oloroso Sherry casks.

It was the first single malt exported from Scotland (to Australia) in 1870. For much of its history it has been ranked among the largest distilleries in Scotland. Its current production capacity of 4.2 million liters of pure alcohol still places it among the top quartile of Scotch whisky distilleries.

The Dalmore 12 Years Sherry Cask Select spent its first decade in regular ex-bourbon casks made from American white oak. Dalmore then collaborated with three well-known cooperages from Andalucia—Tevasa, Vasyma and Paez. A different blend of Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry was created for each of the coopers before seasoning the European and American oak casks. Those casks were used for a finish of up to three years.
