About Dalmore

Dalmore Distillery

The Dalmore Distillery — Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Dalmore Distillery, founded in 1839, is one of Scotland’s most prestigious Highland whisky producers. Located on the shores of the Cromarty Firth in Alness, The Dalmore is globally recognised for its luxurious, full-bodied single malts and its pioneering use of rare, high-quality cask finishes.

Under the long-term vision of its legendary Master Distiller, Richard Paterson, The Dalmore built a reputation for crafting exceptionally rich and complex whiskies, often matured in rare sherry casks from González Byass—including the famous Matusalem Oloroso sherry casks.

Today, The Dalmore stands as a symbol of refinement, innovation, and Highland whisky excellence.
