The Dalmore King Alexander III is a masterful and wildly complex Highland single malt crafted by legendary Master Distiller Richard Paterson to honor the heroic act of Colin of Kintail, Chief of the Clan Mackenzie, who saved King Alexander III of Scotland from a charging stag in 1263. To achieve its unparalleled depth, this whisky undergoes an incredibly ambitious six-cask maturation process. It is carefully aged in a bespoke combination of ex-bourbon casks, Matusalem Oloroso sherry wood, Madeira barrels, Marsala casks, Port pipes, and Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques. This intricate vatting results in a luxurious, multi-layered whisky brimming with rich red berry fruits, sweet vanilla, and warm baking spices, showcasing the absolute pinnacle of The Dalmore's cask curation expertise.
Food Pairing: Rich dark chocolate, roasted venison, duck breast with a cherry reduction, sticky toffee pudding, or a premium medium-bodied cigar.
Tasting Notes : Deep polished mahogany in appearance with a remarkably smooth, velvety, and luxurious mouthfeel.
Nose : Exceedingly complex and aromatic, offering a rich bouquet of red berry fruits, passion fruit, warm vanilla pods, crème caramel, and crushed almonds.
Palate : Rich, sweet, and multi-layered, delivering bright notes of citrus zest, sweet vanilla, and crème caramel that seamlessly evolve into deeper flavors of red berries, fleshy plums, and roasted walnuts.
Finish : Long, warming, and elegant, leaving lingering impressions of sweet cinnamon, nutmeg, fresh ginger, and soft oak wood spice.
Serve : Serve neat in a Glencairn glass or snifter. Allow it to rest in the glass for several minutes to let the intricate six-cask maturation fully express its complex aromatics.
