Dalmore 50 Year Old 10cl Decanter
A very interesting bottle, the liquid has along and complex history. The casks used combine vintages from 1868, 1922, 1926 and 1939. A brief summary of these casks is below:
Cask one: Distilled in June 1868 and transferred into sherry wood in August 1880 and again in October 1891.
Cask two: Distilled February 1878 then racked to sherry wood April 1890 and again in April 1908.
Cask three: Distilled March 1922.
Then these three casks were “racked” – one in May 1926, one in July 1926 and one in August 1926. Then in September 1977 all 3 were then re-racked to a single, unique butt then bottled in February 1978.
Two casks filled in 1939 which were bottled to glass as a 52 year old in October 1991.
All the above whiskies have been blended under the master craftsmanship of Richard Patterson to create this 50 year old.
A very rare 10cl hand blown Portuguese crystal decanter, only 191 bottles were created!
