Description
Dalmore The Quintet 70cl, 44.5% is a Highland single malt Scotch whisky from The Dalmore Distillery, created as part of a travel retail range that also included The Trio and The Quartet. The Quintet name reflects its five-cask finishing style, giving the whisky a layered and elegant Dalmore character.
This expression is initially matured in American white oak ex-Bourbon casks, building a base of soft vanilla and honey. The whisky is then apportioned between Moscatel casks, Malmsey Madeira barrels, Matusalem Sherry casks, aged Port pipes and Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques before being brought back together to harmonise.
Expect a rich and polished Dalmore profile with dried pineapple, floral honey, stewed plums, strawberries, red apples, chocolate, raisins, mint, cinnamon, toffee, oak, cigar box and espresso. The supplied image shows the bottle with its original blue Dalmore The Quintet presentation box, making it a strong bottle for gifting, drinking and collecting.
Why Choose Dalmore The Quintet 70cl, 44.5%
This release stands out because it brings together five different cask finishes in one Dalmore expression. The Moscatel, Madeira, Sherry, Port and Cabernet Sauvignon influence creates a rich balance of fruit, sweetness, chocolate, spice and polished oak.
