The Dalmore Introduces New Core Range Expression: The Dalmore Aged 17 Years

A DECADENT EVOLUTION OF ITS EXCLUSIVE SHERRY CASK TRILOGY MATURATION

Highland Single Malt Whisky, The Dalmore, has introduced a new expression to its core ‘Principal Collection’ – The Dalmore Aged 17 Years – a rich, further exploration of Sherry maturation.

Renowned for their use of Sherry in some of their most exquisite whiskies, The Dalmore Whisky Makers have carefully created The Dalmore Aged 17 Years to offer an ever more enriched experience.

This whisky demonstrates The Dalmore’s decades of expertise with Sherry maturation, and their longstanding relationship with partner, González Byass, from whom The Dalmore exclusively source a trio of fine casks, used in this Single Malt.

A whisky of inherent richness and decadence, The Dalmore Aged 17 Years is initially matured in American white oak ex-Bourbon barrels which creates a base of soft vanilla, and honey notes.

The whisky is then finished in a trio of casks – Amoroso, rare Apostoles, and Matusalem Oloroso – exclusively sourced and carefully selected from one of the finest Sherry makers, González Byass.

Each cask gifts the whisky with its own individual characteristics, enriching the spirit. Apostoles brings structure, depth and savoury complexity, while the Amoroso bridges savoury and sweet, offering harmony and balance. Matusalem Oloroso adds weight, roundness, and lingering sweetness.

The Dalmore’s use of Sherry cask maturation is centuries old, with these casks found to enhance and perfectly balance the unique chocolate, orange and soft spice notes of The Dalmore’s house style. The three exclusive Sherry casks used in this expression are cherished for their age and rarity. They spend decades maturing in the Spanish Bodegas, infusing the wood with deep, sweet and intricately layered flavours that enrich The Dalmore spirit over time.

Together, and complemented by the longer maturation afforded to this new Single Malt, deeper, more decadent, and complex flavours are ready to be explored and enjoyed.

Aromas of Seville orange, rich orchard fruit, and wood spice will welcome you. To taste, expect poached pear, forest berries, sweet toffee, and orange marmalade, with finishing notes of dark chocolate orange, rich dried fruit, and lingering hints of cinnamon and nutmeg.

Presented in outer packaging as exceptional as the spirit within, The Dalmore Aged 17 Years is available in a luxurious purple box, featuring magnet closure for a smooth unboxing experience. The whisky itself is housed in The Dalmore’s signature silhouette glass bottle, adorned with the iconic stag emblem.

The Dalmore Aged 17 Years will be available to those in the UK from The Dalmore online boutique – www.thedalmore.com and there will also be a global rollout to specialist retailers around the world from 28^th January 2026.

With its rare and remarkable cask trilogy story and exceptional flavour, The Dalmore Aged 17 Years is ideal for those looking for more from a Sherry finished whisky. This Single Malt feels as special as the moment it celebrates, making it perfect for sharing or gifting.

The Dalmore Aged 17 Years is available from 28^th January 2026, in 70cl format at 42% ABV. RSP: £175 / €200 / $250.
