About this whisky
The Dalmore 40 Year Old is a Highland single malt Scotch whisky from one of the north's most storied distilleries, sitting on the Cromarty Firth in Ross-shire. Four decades in cask is a serious commitment, and the result is a whisky of rare depth and complexity.
Expect the hallmarks of long-aged Highland malt: profound richness, dried fruit, dark chocolate, and spice layered over a structure that remains composed rather than heavy. Pour it neat, in small measures, for owners who understand what they're drinking.
