The Constellation Collection
The Dalmore 1972 (cask no. 1)
The Dalmore has nurtured a relationship with the González Byass bodega for over 100 years, gaining exclusive access to their oldest and most precious casks.
To nurture this noble spirit Richard Paterson hand selected the finest Apostoles oloroso sherry cask which gifted the spirit with notes of fruit cake, orange rind and black maraschino cherries.
After 36 long years maturing in our deepest darkest warehouses, the spirit was carefully transferred into Kentucky bourbon casks for a further three years.
This secondary maturation enhanced the whisky further, giving it an indefinable elegance.

The Flavour Profile
I selected this Apostoles oloroso sherry cask to showcase its delicate style. It still adds a weighty charm to the whisky but gifts it with just a whisper of caramelised apricots, ginger and frangipan notes
