Dalmore 12 Year is an exceptional Highland single malt Scotch whisky known for its intricate aging process and resulting complexity of flavor. This whisky is aged in two types of casks to create a harmonious and magical fusion of flavors. Initially, it matures in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, infusing soft vanilla and honey notes. A portion of the spirit is then transferred to rare and aged oloroso sherry casks, where it gains a rich, nutty character. The whisky is a carefully orchestrated reunion of these two distinct styles, resulting in a whisky that is both captivating and refined.

From the first pour, The Dalmore 12 reveals a nose of warm caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak. The palate follows with layers of dried fruit, spice, and a hint of smoke, depending on its aging regimen. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering warmth that invites another sip.

Distilled with attention to grain selection and barrel aging, The Dalmore 12 reflects the craft and tradition behind great American and international whiskey-making. Whether you're building a home bar or searching for a thoughtful gift, this bottle belongs in the conversation.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is a Highland single malt from Dalmore Distillery that wears its two-cask upbringing openly. It begins in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, which lay down soft vanilla and honey, before a portion of the spirit moves into oloroso sherry casks and picks up a rich, nutty character; the two are then brought back together. The result, at 12 years old and 40% ABV, is sweet and fragrant on the nose, rounded on the palate with honey, vanilla and nuttiness, and finishes warm with a subtle hint of sherry. Our flavor notes also point to orange peel, dried fruit, baking spice and toasted oak. It suits someone taking their first serious step into Scotch, since it is an approachable introduction to the Highland style, yet it has enough layering to reward a slow, attentive pour after dinner. We carry it because it shows clearly what bourbon and sherry casks each contribute, and it does so in a balanced, easy-to-like way.
