- Description
- Dalmore's 1992 vintage finished in Malmsey Madeira casks elevates the 12-year-old profile with additional sweetness and complexity beyond the standard release. Malmsey's honeyed richness and subtle oxidative character layer over the whisky's natural maturity, adding depth to the traditional Dalmore sweetness. The Madeira finish makes this suitable for those seeking more complexity and wine influence at a more accessible age statement.
