- Dalmore's 1990 vintage, aged 20 years and finished in Amontillado sherry, represents a sophisticated marriage of Highland distillery character with Spanish oak influence. The refill butt foundation preserves the distillery's copper and spice notes, while the Amontillado finish adds layers of dried fruit, almond, and subtle oxidative richness.
