The Dalmore Select Edition 2006 is a distinguished release from The Dalmore's prestigious Vintages Collection. This limited edition, aged 18 years, is the result of meticulous cask selection, showcasing The Dalmore’s signature craftsmanship. The whisky undergoes an initial maturation in first-fill American white oak ex-Bourbon barrels, before being finished in two exquisite Sherry casks: 30-year-old Matusalem Oloroso and 30-year-old Amoroso Sherry casks. This unique aging process imparts a complex and luxurious flavor profile that combines the best elements of deep, dark fruits and rich, warming spices, creating an unforgettable whisky experience.
This non-chill filtered whisky is naturally colored, preserving all the character and depth of the casks that shaped it. With each sip, you are invited into a world of decadent layers, where each note—whether it’s the Sherry-soaked raisins, the roasted figs, or the dark chocolate finish—reveals the care and precision invested in its creation. The Dalmore Select Edition 2006 is a true celebration of The Dalmore’s legacy and their commitment to excellence.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Highland single malt aged 18 years that wears its sherry influence proudly without losing its shape. The Dalmore matured it first in first-fill American white oak ex-Bourbon barrels, then finished it in 30-year-old Matusalem Oloroso and 30-year-old Amoroso Sherry casks, and bottled it at 47.2% ABV, non-chill filtered and naturally colored. In the glass that means sherry-soaked raisins, roasted figs and cedar on the nose, then blackberry, plum, liquorice and cacao on the palate, with a lift of bergamot and blood orange that keeps the richness from getting heavy. The finish runs long on antique sherry, cassia bark and dark chocolate. It is a limited edition from The Dalmore's Vintages Collection, so it suits the collector or the sherry-cask devotee more than someone buying a first Scotch, and it rewards slow, neat sipping over mixing. We carry it because it shows how a careful bourbon-then-sherry cask sequence can build layered depth, and because it makes a genuinely thoughtful bottle for a milestone.

- Dark chocolate cake — The whisky's cacao and dark chocolate finish echo the cake while its blood orange brightness cuts through the richness.
- Spiced fruit tarts — Roasted fig, raisin and cassia notes mirror the tart's dried fruit and warming spice.
- Milestone celebration with aficionados — Its long, evolving finish of antique sherry and berries gives a room of whisky lovers plenty to discuss sip after sip.
