The Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve is a distinguished single malt whisky, meticulously crafted in the Highlands of Scotland. This exceptional spirit is matured in a combination of American white oak ex-bourbon casks, Matusalem oloroso sherry casks, and Premier Cru Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques. The result is a whisky with a rich and complex flavor profile, where notes of caramel, shortcake biscuits, charred orange peel, and sherry tones meld harmoniously with a subtle vegetal note, thanks to the inclusion of brown tobacco in the aging process.
The Dalmore Distillery, established in 1839, is renowned for its use of first-class sherry casks and its longstanding partnership with the Sherry-House Gonzalez Byass. This relationship grants the distillery exclusive access to sherry casks used to age sherry for up to 30 years, infusing the whisky with characteristic notes of chocolate, oranges, dried fruits, and nuts.
First launched in 1999 specifically for cigar enthusiasts, The Dalmore Cigar Malt was discontinued in 2009, only to be relaunched in 2018 in an eye-catching red box. This whisky boasts an ABV of 44% and is celebrated for its body, structure, and character, making it a perfect complement to a fine cigar. The Dalmore Distillery’s unique coastal location and its commitment to traditional craftsmanship contribute significantly to the exceptional quality of its whiskies, and The Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve is no exception.
