Dalmore King Alexander III - new Design

Dalmore King Alexander III honours the eponymous Scottish king. On a hunt in 1236, a member of the Mackenzie family saved the life of an aristocrat. King Alexander III showed his gratitude by allowing the family to use the royal deer in their crest. Since then the deer head is decorating the bottles of the distillery. This special Single Malt was created with six different cask types.
