Crafted by renowned Master Blender Richard Patterson, the Dalmore Cigar malt is supposed to be paired with the finest cigars, and offers complimentary flavours like cinnamon, vanilla, orange zest and toffee.

Combined from just three cask types that include 30 year old oloroso sherry matured whisky, this is a typical Patterson gem - unbelievably soft and rounded, yet flavoursome enough to withstand a hefty cigar.

Colour rich, deep, golden mahogany. Nose intense and firm. Well structured with silky smooth malty tones - a hint of Oloroso sherry lingers in the background. It shows great finesse, extolling frangrances of orange, marmalade and spice notes. Taste, good attack on the mouth, more elegance than muscle. The aged Oloroso butts smooth its rich, fleshy body with great harmony. Almost a concentrated citric mouth-feel captivates and tantalises the middle part of your tongue. An aftertaste of great abundance rewards the palate. A Highland malt of great distinction.

A mixture of cask types and ages make up this extraordinary Dalmore. A feast of aromas ranging from red fruits, sherry, chocolate, citrus and spices, along with vanilla and nuts. A perfect end-of-the night dram, created in honour of the Mackenzie clansman who with a deft shot from a bow saved King Alexander III from a fatal charge by a 12 pointed stag.
