Dalmore 45 Year Old 2021 Release (70cl, 40%)
The Dalmore 45 has been hand crafted by Master Distiller Richard Paterson who has used some of the distillery’s rarest aged liquids to create what Richard himself has described as ‘flawless perfection’.
Initially matured in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, the liquid has then been transferred into two different Vintage Graham’s Port Colheita pipes dating from 1961 and 1963 to create layers of flavour, which are indulgent, smooth and complex.
For its final flourish the whisky was then married together in first fill American white oak ex-bourbon casks providing The Dalmore 45 with a truly unrivalled finish. The Dalmore’s use of multiple casks is a fitting example of the distillery’s commitment to exquisite cask curation, which focuses on sourcing and utilising only the best casks from the world’s finest bodegas and wineries.
Purposefully retained at 40% ABV, The Dalmore 45 features exquisite flavours of red berries, soft liquorice, crushed hazelnuts, bitter chocolate and Manuka honey. This is followed by the sweet flavours of sticky toffee pudding, Bramley apples and juicy dates to finish.
Richard Paterson commented: “By personally selecting the very finest American white oak ex-bourbon casks and Port Colheita Pipes from 1961 and 1963, I have been able to create a truly unique expression which is indulgent and smooth with a vibrant and lively flavour profile. It takes time, dedication and passion to create an expression like The Dalmore 45 and age has gracefully matured this distinguished spirit to make it one of The Dalmore’s greatest aged spirits. This is a very special whisky, which I would describe as flawless perfection.”
Only 500 bottles of The Dalmore 45 will be released globally this year. 2021 Release

MYSTERIOUS CHARACTERS AND RICH HERITAGE
The spirit is presented in a pristine crystal decanter. Individually numbered, it is a masterpiece by Lalique, the doyen of French glassmaking since 1888. The decanter’s six facets reflect and refract light, bringing the dark whiskey to life.
The inspiration comes from the six cornerstones of The Macallan, namely the winery, our curious little stills, the exceptional oak barrels, the sherry wine, the natural color and the mastery. Together they form the basis for the renowned quality and rich character of our whiskey.
A CELEBRATION OF MASTERSHIP
The carafe was designed by creative guru Fabien Baron, whose vision combines aesthetic expression with commercial art at its finest. His dramatic concept challenged Lalique considerably. The vessel’s sculptural geometry takes the craft of crystal glass into new territory, a vision for the future created with respect for the glories of the past.
A darkness full of promise. a light that sparkles in the sun. There is no better expression for single malt and modern crystal glasses that could complement each other.
