Containing some of the distillerys rarest aged stocks selected by master distiller Richard Paterson. The Dalmore 45 year old was initially aged in bourbon casks, before being transferred over to a pair of Grahams Port Colheita pipes (from 1961 & 1963), then married together in first-fill bourbon casks. Presented in a hand-blown crystal decanter crafted by French crystal house Baccarat. The Dalmore stag emblem featured on the decanter is the work of Scottish silversmith and Royal Warrant holder Hamilton & Inches.This expression is said to showcase complex, rich, characteristics of sticky toffee, treacle cake, almonds, crushed hazelnuts, red berries, manuka honey, soft liquorice, and bitter chocolate.

Dalmore, located on the northern shores of the Firth of Cromarty, deep in the Scottish Highlands has been making single malt whiskies since 1839 and the bottles still bear the stag crest of the Clan Mackenzie. Their Cigar Malt Reserve is a wonderful blend of three different oak types of 10-15 year old whiskies. White American oak, 30 year old Matusalem Olorosso Sherry casks and Premier Cru Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques. The final blend has an enveloping aroma and flavour of the finest hand-made cigars; rich and smoky and extremely long lasting.

Deep, golden mahogany in colour, Dalmore has a fantastic nose of orange, marmalade and aromatic spice. Elegant and rich on the palate with concentrated citrus, oloroso Sherry with hints of sweet vanilla pod. An amazing and lingering finish.
