The Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve Scotch Whisky 750mL is a sophisticated Highland single malt meticulously crafted to complement the world’s finest cigars. Produced by The Dalmore Distillery in Alness, Scotland, this expression is matured in a unique trio of casks—American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, Matusalem Oloroso sherry casks, and Cabernet Sauvignon wine barriques—to achieve its deep, complex, and luxurious character.

Bottled at 88 proof (44% ABV), The Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve delivers a bold yet refined profile marked by notes of dark chocolate, ripe fruit, and warm spice. Its rich body and lingering sherry sweetness pair beautifully with full-bodied cigars, but it also shines when enjoyed neat. Presented in The Dalmore’s iconic stag-embossed bottle, it represents the perfect union of craftsmanship, flavor, and elegance.
