Dalmore – 12 Year Old (70cl, 40%)

Dalmore – 12 Year Old is a whisky from Dalmore (Highland). Aged 12 years, bottled at 40% ABV, 70cl. Dalmore distillery was used as a deep-sea mine production centre by the Royal Navy between 1917 and 1920. After the navy departed, the distillery was left in tatters, and - after a long compensation battle involving the House of Lords - the distillery was brought back online in 1922. Now Dalmore, under the stewardship of Richard Paterson, presents itself as a luxury brand with a history of wealthy backers, with some of its bottlings among the most expensive in the world. Please note minor markings and creasing to box.
