Description

'Quintessence' means "perfect embodiment" and this limited edition expression of Dalmore truly lives up to that. It is a unique malt whisky which showcases the technical virtuosity and creative vision which sets The Dalmore apart. Paterson's unrivalled passion to push the boundaries of whisky creation led to the sun-drenched vineyards of California where he sought to combine his love of fine wines. This limited edition was created by Master Distiller Richard Paterson to celebrate his 50th year in the whisky industry.
