TheĀ Dalmore 12 is recognized as a whisky with character far beyond its age. The spirit is initially matured in American white oak ex-Bourbon casks, yielding soft vanilla and honey notes.
A proportion of the spirit is then finessed in pinnacle Sherry casks, including 30-Year Old Matusalem Oloroso casks, exclusive to TheĀ Dalmore, to give the whisky a rich, nutty character. The two styles are then reunited to create an outstanding single malt.
