The Dalmore 12 Year, 14 Year & Portwood Reserve Bundle brings together three expressions that demonstrate the range of The Dalmore’s cask maturation philosophy from the core sherry-influenced 12-year through the premium 14-year, to the port pipe finished Portwood Reserve.

All three expressions share The Dalmore’s signature approach: American white oak ex-bourbon primary maturation followed by finishing in premium sherry or wine casks. Together they show how different finishing casks Matusalem oloroso, various sherry types, and W&J Graham port pipes produce distinct character variations on the same Highland distillate base.
