Craftsmanship & Story

Founded in 1839 by Alexander Matheson, The Dalmore distillery overlooks the Cromarty Firth in the Scottish Highlands. Today, it remains a flagship of Whyte & Mackay, producing whiskies celebrated for their rich, sherried depth. Its unique still set-up, with flat-topped water-jacketed stills, creates a distinctive weighty spirit. Under the vision of Richard Paterson, The Dalmore has become synonymous with luxury single malts, known for bold character and meticulous cask selection. The 12 Year Old exemplifies this heritage, balancing sherry cask opulence with Highland vibrancy.

Special Features

A benchmark Highland malt, The Dalmore 12 combines American oak vanilla with the richness of sherry-seasoned wood. Its emblematic stag crest, a symbol of nobility and courage, reflects both its Highland heritage and luxury status.
