In 1839, Alexander Matheson sought the perfect location for his new distillery. With his only criteria as finding the best natural resources to make the finest whisky, he settled on an isolated area on the banks of the Cromarty Firth. And so, The Dalmore was born. Uniquely using irregular shaped stills, Dalmore believes that they produce a stronger and more complex character to their whiskies. Their spirits are charactered with deep copper colour and flavours of crushed almonds, cinnamon, ginger and citrus. The Dalmore 1263 King Alexander III Single Malt was created to celebrate the bravery of the Mackenzie Clan in saving the Monarch's life and the subsequent 12 pointed Royal Stag emblem he gifted them. With rich fruity flavours and a woody finish, the King would have been proud to receive such a delicious honour. …

About the brand

Established in 1839 by Alexander Matheson, Dalmore is a brand of acclaimed highland single malt Scotch produced by the renowned Dalmore Distillery in Scotland. The brand was family run until 1960 when one of its primary customer’s, Whyte & Mackay, took control of the company. At the time, Dalmore mainly consisted of a 12 year old iteration - however the brand has since expanded its range to include 15, 18, and 25 year old single malts, as well as a variety of specialty NAS releases. Dalmore’s rare selections include such offerings as the rare Dalmore’s King Alexander III; a unique wood finished bottling matured in 6 hand-selected wine and port casks. Another select edition, Dalmore Trinitas, was first released in 2010 and yielded a mere three bottles – selling for a reported $100,000 - $120,000 each. The brand was purchased by Philippines-based Emperador Inc in 2014 and continues their legacy of highly-collectible single malt whiskey today.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Malty and utterly Dalmore. Seville orange zest, Parfait Amour, malty cereal, barley and chocolate. Creamy vanilla fudge, tropical fruit with a vaguely vinous quality.

Taste

Medium, rounded. Winter berries, spice, zesty orange. Liqueurs emerge; Grand Marnier, kirsch and Frangelico.

Finish

Peppery with well-integrated oak and the claret makes a last minute appearance.
