Dalmore Quintessence

Quintessence, a truly exceptional expression from Dalmore, embarks on a journey of maturation that begins in American oak ex-bourbon casks. However, its true character emerges during an additional five-year sojourn in five distinct Californian red wine casks, each meticulously chosen by the experienced hands of Richard Paterson, a visionary with half a century in the industry. Marking this remarkable milestone, the casks cradle wines of varying grape varieties – Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon – imparting a symphony of nuanced qualities to the whisky's final form. The result is a masterpiece that epitomizes the fusion of craftsmanship and creativity, showcasing the expertise of both distillery and wine-making heritage.
