DALMORE 2009 Vintage (2024 Release) Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70cl 48.9%

The Dalmore 2009 Vintage (2024 Release) is a rare annual expression that captures the distinctive character of a single year at Dalmore Distillery. Each November, Dalmore’s whisky makers return to the historic sandstone warehouses to assess maturing stocks, selecting only a small number of standout casks that best represent the vintage. Those casks are then expertly married to create one harmonious limited release — a whisky that reveals the soul of 2009 through Dalmore’s signature richness, refined sweetness and layered cask influence. Bottled in 2024 at 48.9%, non chill-filtered and natural in colour, this vintage offers an indulgent, deeply elegant Highland dram for collectors and sherry lovers alike.
