Description
The Dalmore The Quintet is a masterful Highland single malt that pushes the boundaries of cask maturation. This 700ml release is part of a series originally created by the historic distillery for the travel retail market, bottled at 44.5% ABV to preserve its velvety texture and full-bodied depth. The journey of this spirit begins in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels before being expertly divided among five exceptional cask types: rare Moscatel, Malmsey Madeira, 30-year-old Matusalem sherry, 10-year-old Port, and Bordeaux Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques. This intricate process creates one of the most complex premium whiskies in South Africa. To fully appreciate the artistry of the Master Distiller, serve this dram neat in a tulip-shaped glass, perhaps with a single drop of spring water to open the aromatic layers. Enjoy reliable liquor delivery across South Africa from Decanter Liquor for all your luxury spirits. Each sip offers a symphony of flavours:
- Nose: Dried pineapple, floral honey and stewed plums with strawberries and a hint of baked earth.
- Palate: Red apples, fruit and nut chocolate, mint leaf and cinnamon sticks over toffee and old oak.
- Finish: Lingering notes of cigar box and espresso.
