The combination of oloroso — dry and nutty — with PX — sweet and concentrated — produces a sherry influence that has both depth and sweetness without tipping into cloying territory. The result is a richer, darker, and more complex version of the Dalmore house style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who found the standard Dalmore 12 appealing but wanted more sherry character, the Sherry Cask Select is the natural next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark chocolate, roasted coffee, rich sherry, dried figs, and caramelised orange\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet raisins, spiced caramel, chocolate orange, and a distinctive depth from the dual-sherry cask program\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, rich, and warming with dark fruit, cocoa, and gentle oak\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Dalmore, Alness, Ross-shire, Highland\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Northern Highland, Scotland\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge Statement:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 Years\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCask Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e American white oak then oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry cask blend from three Jerez cooperages\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40%\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore the full \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/scotch\"\u003eScotch whisky collection\u003c\/a\u003e at Wooden Cork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow does this differ from the standard Dalmore 12?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sherry Cask Select uses a proprietary blend of oloroso and PX sherry casks from three Jerez cooperages, delivering twice the sherry influence of the standard 12-year's Matusalem oloroso finish.
