DALMORE 45 YEAR OLD.
- Flawless perfection.
“Flawless perfection” is what Richard Pasterson said about Dalmore 45 years.
This Highland single malt from The Dalmore has been crafted by Master Distiller, Richard Paterson, using some of the distillery’s rarest and most exceptional whiskies. Matured in American white oak ex-bourbon casks before spending five years in 1961 and 1963 vintage Colheita port pipes, the whisky is then married together and finished in first-fill American white oak ex-bourbon casks.
Richard Paterson, The Dalmore’s longtime master distiller says. “We have a distinguished series of limited release whiskies that represent the essence of The Dalmore: carefully curated casks of character, a liquid of legendary depth. The Dalmore 45 is no exception—aged in American white oak ex-bourbon casks and Port Colheita Pipes from 1961 and 1963, this expression in not only unique but also abundant with indulgent and lively flavors. It has been an honor to dedicate my life’s work to creating such exquisite single malt whiskies. The Dalmore 45 is a fine addition to the portfolio.”

The palate has a soft liquorice note alongside red berries, hazelnuts and dark chocolate, all dripping in Manuka honey. The finish has Bramley apples and juicy dates lingering.
