The Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve benefits from a judicious selection of aged stocks drawn from casks of three types: American white oak ex-bourbon casks (30%), 30 year old Matusalem Oloroso Sherry butts (70%) and premier cru Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques (finish). Bottled at 44 % alcohol by volume, the body structure and character of this extraordinary expression is the perfect compliment to a fine cigar.
The Dalmore´s heritage dates back to 1263. It was in this year that an ancestor of the Clan Mackenzie, owners of the Dalmore distillery for over a century, saved King Alexander III from the fury of a charging stag. In the recognition of this noble act the grateful King granted the Clan Mackenzie the right to use a 12 point stag, representing a "Royal", in their coat of arms. This striking icon has since adorned each bottle of The Dalmore, symbolizing The Dalmore distillery´s regal legacy.
