The Dalmore 25YO Scotch Single Malt Whisky
ABV: 42%
Region: Highland, Scotland.
An exceptional whisky matured in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, aged Tawny Port pipes and casks, exclusive to The Dalmore, which have held 30 year old Matusalem oloroso sherry.
Wearing proudly the 12-pointed stag of the McKenzie Clan is The Dalmore 25 Year Old, aged first in American White Oak before a finishing in a combination of Palomino Fino Sherry and First-Fill Bourbon Casks then married for a final ageing in tawny port. This is rich, sweet and full-bodied with vanilla, toffee and orange breakfast marmalade.
First released in 2013, the Dalmore 25 is matured initially in American white oak before a second maturation in a combination of Palomino Fino sherry butts and first fill bourbon casks. These are then married together in bourbon barrels before a finishing period in Tawny Port pipes.
