Description
The Dalmore The Trio
The Dalmore The Trio is An exceptional single malt matured in three equally exceptional casks. Using a three cask maturation, The Dalmore The Trio is a captivating marriage of rare and exceptional casks. The liquid is initially matured in American white oak ex-bourbon casks. This gives its first base of soft vanilla and honey notes. The whisky is apportioned between first fill ex-bourbon casks, 10 year old Tawny port pipes and 30 year old Matusalem sherry casks. The three parts are then brought back together to harmonize.

Combining five types of casks complements The Dalmore The Trio is a bold and majestic Highland Single Malt. Initially matured in American white oak ex-bourbon casks for a first base of soft vanilla and honey notes. The whisky is apportioned between Moscatel casks, Malmsey Madeira barrels, Matusalem sherry casks, aged Port pipes, and Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques. The five parts are then brought together to harmonize, with each cask gifting the whisky with its own characteristics and flavours.
