Dalmore Millennium Release 1263 Custodian 2018 / 3rd Release
Dalmore is undoubtedly the prize single malt in the Whyte & Mackay portfolio. This was not always the case though. The blenders purchased it from the Mackenzie family in 1960, having been long-standing customers. Due to the long-running importance of it to their blends, their distillery bottlings of its single malt were limited to a 12 year old expression. Nowadays however, it is positioned as a luxury brand, rubbing shoulder with the likes of Macallan, and is globally recognised.
The third bottling in the distillery's 1263 Custodian series, a concept introduced for its followers in 2012. A selection of casks were filled at midnight on January 1st 2000, and gradually released on their 12th, 15th, and 18th birthdays.
This was bottled in 2018 as a 18 year old and was initially matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks before being finished in Matusalem oloroso sherry butts.
