The Dalmore 18 Year Old Scotch Whisky 2024 Edition
The Dalmore 18 Year Old 2024 Edition is a luxurious, deeply expressive Highland single malt that showcases the house’s signature sherry-matured richness. With layers of dark chocolate, stewed fruits, orange zest, and warming oak spice, it is a polished, resonant whisky built for slow appreciation and refined tastes.
Origins & Craftsmanship
Distilled at The Dalmore’s historic Highland distillery in Alness, this whisky undergoes a dual-maturation process that defines its opulent profile. It first rests in American white-oak ex-bourbon casks, gaining structure and vanilla sweetness. It is then transferred to rare, 30-year-old Matusalem Oloroso sherry butts selected specifically for Dalmore, imparting depth, richness, and the brand’s hallmark fruit-and-spice elegance.
Aged a full 18 years and bottled at 43% ABV, the 2024 Edition continues Dalmore’s tradition of mature, sherry-cask mastery.
