Origin and Heritage
Hailing from Scotlandβs Highland region, Dalmore 12 is crafted at the Dalmore Distillery in Alness, founded in 1839 by Alexander Matheson. Steeped in history, the distilleryβs Mackenzie clan legacyβsymbolized by the iconic 12-point stag emblemβdates back to 1263, when the clan saved King Alexander III from a stag. Acquired by the Mackenzies in 1867, Dalmore pioneered cask maturation, blending tradition with innovation. Aged nine years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks and three years in ex-oloroso sherry casks, Dalmore 12 has earned accolades like a Gold Medal at the 2019 International Spirits Challenge. Its global prestige makes it a prized choice for Nairobiβs whisky aficionados.
Dalmore 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (40% ABV) offers a bold and balanced profile, rated 85/100 by Whisky Advocate for its complexity. The nose captivates with zesty orange peel, dark plums, chocolate, and marzipan, with hints of cinnamon and elderflower. On the palate, it delivers a creamy texture, blending candied oranges, coffee, almond, and spicy cinnamon, with a gentle resinous bitterness. The finish is medium, warm, and smooth, with lingering vanilla, plums, and breakfast tea notes. Best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water in a Glencairn glass, this whiskyβs depth shines, making it a favorite for Nairobiβs connoisseurs and collectors.
Ideal Pairings and Best Use Occasions
