Dalmore - The Quintet (Travel Exclusive)

The Dalmore “The Quintet” is a travel exclusive single malt from the Highland distillery in Alness, located on the banks of the Cromarty Firth overlooking the Black Isle. Owned and operated by Whyte & Mackay (part of Emperador Inc.), Dalmore is known for rich, cask-driven whisky, and this release leans heavily into that signature style. Finished in five different cask types—Moscatel, Madeira, Matusalem Sherry, Tawny Port, and Cabernet Sauvignon—it’s designed to deliver a layered, fruit-forward profile with plenty of depth and a distinctive “only in travel retail” collectability factor.
