Product Description

The Dalmore’s heritage dates back to 1263, when an ancestor of the Clan Mackenzie, owners of The Dalmore distillery for over a century, saved King Alexander III from the fury of a charging stag. In recognition of this noble act the grateful King granted the Clan Mackenzie the right to use a 12-point stag, representing a ‘Royal’, in their coat of arms. This striking icon has since adorned each bottle of The Dalmore, symbolising The Dalmore distillery’s regal legacy.

Tasting Notes

Citrus zest meets red berries. Terrific.
