The Dalmore 12yo Sherry Cask Select begins its journey in American white oak ex-bourbon casks where it spends ten years maturing, laying down the foundations of the distillery's house style: chocolate, orange and spice. The liquid is then finished in an assemblage of hand-curated sherry barrels from Andalusia in Spain, making this 12-year-old a delicious and decadent drinking experience, full of sweet fruits and autumnal spice. 

Nose:  A nice combination of all things sherry: soaked raisins, milk chocolate and toffee, as well as brighter hints of raspberry jam, orange juice and subtle balsamic whiffs. Also mint and light nutty notes. 

Mouth: Caramel sweetness, light tobacco, cinnamon pastry and chocolate cake. A little vanilla roundness. Herbal touches and baking spice. A hint of roasted coffee beans.

Finish: not too long, quite honeyed, with latte, more chocolate and gentle oak spice.
