Further, Dalmore has added the long matured distillate from cask 1782 to deepen this malt’s taste. Finally, the finishing touch to the malt is provided by adding a judicious amount of the revered 64 yo, which adds notes of coffee, aromatic spices, and citrus zest to the malt.
A fine drink for the true whiskey connoisseur, it is truly a class apart.
