In celebration of 180 years dedicated to creating masterpiece whiskies, The Dalmore unveiled a rare, limited edition 60-year-old single malt whisky.
The Dalmore 60 Year Old has been created from two twin casks—the last casks of the great Mackenzie era—which have been lying in repose side by side in the Scottish Highlands.
Master Distiller Richard Paterson, who has been the creative force behind the brand since 1970, created The Dalmore 60 Year Old by reuniting two extremely rare ex-sherry casks from six decades ago. Filled with spirit first distilled on June 7, 1951, these two ex-sherry casks have been slowly maturing and building layers of depth and complexity, with the whisky in each cask evolving in an entirely different direction for 60 years.
“The Dalmore 60 Year Old is a fitting tribute to the masterful talents of our distillers past and present, who have all helped to create an incredible body of work,” enthused Peterson.
“For me personally, nurturing and caring for these two casks has been a true labor of love. The reunion of the two spirits has produced an unforgettable whisky that is truly greater than the sum of its parts.”
The rare single malt whisky is limited to just three decanters.
