Five red wine casks. Five years of patience. One masterstroke from a master distiller's fiftieth year. Volume: 700mL ABV: 45% Origin: Highland, Scotland Style: Single Malt Scotch Whisky Age: No Age Statement Release: Oak & Origin Exclusive 2026 — 10 units only Matured first in American oak ex-bourbon casks, Quintessence then rests five full years across five hand-selected Californian red wine casks — Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Master Distiller Richard Paterson built it to mark half a century in whisky, and it remains the only single malt in the world finished across five distinct red wine casks. What it delivers Luscious red fruits layered with black forest berries and marmalade. Silky caramel and honeycomb running through the mid-palate. Tropical fruit, ginger and sun-dried raisins building depth. A velvety, creamy finish edged with cassis and orange. Why it matters One of just 10 bottles secured for Oak & Origin — a genuine collector's allocation. International Spirits Challenge 2020 Gold medallist. Presented in The Dalmore's signature gift box, built to be kept as much as poured. Every bottle includes a complimentary Dalmore 12 Year Old and a virtual tasting with a Dalmore Brand Ambassador.
