About this whisky
The Dalmore - Constellation Collection - Vintage - Single Malt Scotch Whisky
The Dalmore Constellation Collection is a vintage single malt Scotch whisky from Dalmore. It is a serious dram for the end of a long dinner.
Single malt of this kind tends to open with malted barley sweetness and warm, rounded notes of spice and dried fruit. The palate is typically textured, and the finish warming, with spice lingering.
Scotch single malt is made at one distillery from malted barley, water and yeast. Time in the cask supplies the colour, depth and polish that separate a considered malt from a young one.
Serve it neat in a tulip glass, or with a few drops of water to open the aromatics. A single large cube suits a warm deck. For something more theatrical, the house signature is the Constellation Eclipse cocktail. Dark chocolate and roasted nuts make good company.
