Dalmore 1991 Whisky Sponge 29 Year Old Edition No.10

Dalmore is undoubtedly the prize single malt in the Whyte & Mackay portfolio. This was not always the case though. The blenders purchased it from the Mackenzie family in 1960, having been long-standing customers. Due to the long-running importance of it to their blends, their distillery bottlings of its single malt were limited to a 12 year old expression. Nowadays however, it is positioned as a luxury brand, rubbing shoulder with the likes of Macallan, and is globally recognised. Independent releases like this are hard to come by.

This Dalmore was distilled in 1991 and matured in a single refill bourbon barrel for 29 years. It was bottled in 2022.

This is Edition No.10 of the Whisky Sponge series, the often light-hearted and humorous collaboration between Decadent Drinks and The Whisky Sponge blog.

One of 205 bottles.
