Origin and Heritage
Born in Scotlandโs Highland region, Dalmore 18 is crafted at the Dalmore Distillery in Alness, established in 1839 by Alexander Matheson. The distilleryโs storied Mackenzie clan legacy, tracing back to 1263 when Colin of Kintail saved King Alexander III from a stag, is celebrated through the iconic 12-point stag emblem on every bottle. Acquired by the Mackenzies in 1867, Dalmore pioneered multi-cask maturation, setting industry standards. Dalmore 18 is initially matured for 14 years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, then transferred to 30-year-old Matusalem oloroso sherry casks from Gonzรกlez Byass for four years, creating its signature depth. Its excellence earned an 89/100 from Wine-Searcher critics, making it a pinnacle choice for Nairobiโs whisky elite.

On the palate, it unfolds with a luxurious creaminess, offering flavors of bitter chocolate, candied citrus, rich toffee, and stewed fruits, balanced by warm cinnamon and oaky spice. The finish is long, opulent, and slightly dry, with lingering notes of sherry, liquorice, and espresso.
