Dalmore 17YO (42%)

This 17-year-old Dalmore sits between the 15 and 18 in the range, yet it stands firmly on its own. It is matured in bourbon casks before being finished in a selection of sherry casks, including Amoroso, Apostoles and Matusalem.

The profile feels rich and layered without becoming heavy. Orange and orchard fruit form the base, supported by warm spice and a clear oak influence that remains controlled.

As it develops, softer and sweeter notes come forward. Poached pear and red fruit move into toffee and marmalade, with the sherry casks adding depth rather than dominance.

The finish leans into fruit and oak, with dark chocolate, dried fruit and lingering spice fading slowly.
