- Dalmore's 1996 vintage spent 20 years in wood before a three-year finishing period in Port pipes previously aged with Graham's Colheita, creating a whisky of concentrated richness. Expect dark stone fruits, spice, and the Highland distillery's signature orange-tinged character amplified by the wine cask influence.
