This historic style is known for its rich combination of sweet malt, orange marmalade, dried fruit, vanilla, chocolate, and gentle spice, with the characteristic Dalmore sherry influence adding depth and richness. The older bottling style gives it considerable interest for collectors, particularly compared with modern Dalmore releases. A classic, full-bodied Highland malt with a polished and distinctly sherried character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDalmore 12 Year Old - Pre 2009 Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 1L Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Orange marmalade, baked apple, pear, honey, vanilla, dried fruit, sweet malt, chocolate, gentle spice, and soft oak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePalate:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Rich malt, orange, caramel, honey, vanilla, dried apricot, citrus peel, chocolate, toasted nuts, cinnamon, and mature oak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Medium to long, with lingering orange marmalade, dried fruit, vanilla, chocolate, gentle spice, and polished oak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDistillery Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDalmore was founded by Alexander Matheson in 1839 and now stands as Whyte and Mackay’s largest distillery as well as being the flagship for the brand. The house style is undeniably one of rich, full-bodied whisky, with orange, chocolate and coffee flavours and Dalmore whisky is regularly enjoyed as a post dinner digestif. Matheson sold to Andrew and Charles Mackenzie in 1867, who introduced the 12-pointed Royal Stag emblem. Complex multi-cask maturation was also a philosophy pioneered by the Mackenzies - a tradition kept alive today – enhancing and complementing The Dalmore’s distinctive house style. Dalmore’s original stills that date back to 1874, with four stills dating from the 1960s that are identical in their distinctive stumpy shape but twice the size. The flat tops unusually provides reflux in the wash stills, but increases copper contact while the spirit stills have water jackets to increase reflux again. The distillery has shell-and-tube condensers, but for the spirit stills these are horizontal so as to mimic worm tubs and bring more wright to the spirit. Due to the unorthodox nature of the set-up, the proces is still very manual, with still temperatures, spirit strength, and cut points regularly tweaked to achieve the right balance. The result is complex, full-bodied, and robust new make spirit, which allows the whisky to develop rich depth of flavour through long maturation in the world’s most exquisite casks, with sherry casks from Gonzalez Byass a regular favourite. The distillery itself looks incredible, overlooking the Cromarty Firth. In 2022, it produced a record 4.5m litres of pure alcohol (lpa) but a £40m doubling of production capacity was scheduled for completion in 2024. A new, twin still house on the site of Dalmore’s now demolished Saladin box maltings (made obsolete in the 1980s) boasts a mash tun, wooden washbacks, and four stills as well as panoramic views. It also promises more sustainable production methods.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ConciergeUK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50003851575434,"sku":null,"price":999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/13_c63b8720-8d39-415d-995c-92408a985f7c.jpg?v=1786644481","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/es\/products\/dalmore-12-year-old-pre-2009-single-malt-scotch-whisky-1l","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
