The Dalmore KING ALEXANDER III Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 42,8% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

The Dalmore King Alexander III is an exceptional prestige bottling from the traditional Dalmore Distillery, which is known for its luxurious and complex matured Highland single malts. This edition was dedicated to Scotland's King Alexander III and tells an impressive story not only in terms of taste, but also historically: it honors the moment when an ancestor of the Mackenzie clan - the later owners of the distillery - saved the king's life, which led to the right of honor to bear the iconic stag's antlers in the coat of arms.

This homage is expressed through a masterful cask composition of six different cask types. The whisky is matured in ex-bourbon casks, Matusalem Oloroso sherry casks, Madeira casks, Marsala casks, port wine casks and Cabernet Sauvignon barriques. This unique variety of casks creates an impressively deep, balanced and velvety-complex aroma profile that is unparalleled in the world of Scotch whisky.

Bottled at 40% alcohol by volume, King Alexander III impresses with its elegance, complexity and aristocratic character - perfectly presented in an elegant gift box that does justice to the prestige of this edition.
