DALMORE 35 YO

Dalmore 35: The rare whisky has been aged in three different casks over a 35-year period with 1,000 bottles scheduled for release every year for five years. Bottled at 40% abv, Dalmore 35 has been aged in a Bourbon barrel, a Matusalem Sherry butt and a colheita Port pipe. The new variant, which follows the recent launch of Dalmore Quintessence, is presented in a hand-blown crystal decanter crafted by French crystal house Baccarat.The Dalmore stag emblem featured on the decanter is the work of Scottish silversmith and Royal Warrant holder Hamilton & Inches. Richard Paterson, master distiller at Dalmore, who celebrated 50 years working in whisky earlier this month, said: ‘It took careful maturation in three different woods over a 35-year period to release the full potential of this whisky.‘Only after this long period of time did the whisky finally become everything I envisaged it could be.’
