Dalmore – King Alexander III

Description

In 1263, Colin of Kintail, Chief of the Clan Mackenzie, took a bold decision to stand up and be counted, and felled a charging stag which attacked King Alexander III of Scotland. In return for saving his life, the grateful King gifted the 12-pointed Royal Stag emblem to the Mackenzie Clan as a reward.

The Dalmore King Alexander III was crafted to honour the act of saving Scotland’s king in 1263. To make this expression, Master Distiller Richard Paterson selected a range of six specially selected casks housing spirit of perfect maturity – from French wine casks, Madeira drums, sherry butts, Marsala barrels, port pipes and bourbon barrels from Kentucky.
