- Description
- This 2005 Dalmore bottled in 2023 combines ex-bourbon and ex-sherry maturation to deliver milk chocolate, caramelised orange, and cracked black pepper aromatics, followed by poached orchard fruit, acacia honey, and cacao nibs on the palate. The 49.3% bottling strength preserves layered complexity without dilution. A showcase of Dalmore's signature house style—approachable yet sophisticated.
