The Dalmore 18 Year Cigar Malt Signature Reserve Single Malt

The Dalmore Cigar Malt Signature Reserve 18 Year is a Highland single malt matured across five casks and built to pair with medium to full-bodied cigars, bottled at 46% ABV.

The Dalmore's newest Cigar Malt expression is crafted as the perfect accompaniment to a fine cigar, with the depth and structure for a harmonious pairing. It begins in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, then is finished across a curated selection of Marsala, Matusalem Oloroso sherry, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc casks. This five-cask maturation builds richness and complexity, delivering bold, structured flavor — the richer, more complex sibling to the standard Cigar Malt Reserve, with a full 18-year age statement.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Chocolate orange, dried fig, and dark fruit, with hints of aromatic oud and sandalwood.
Palate: Forest berries, sticky dates with orange marmalade, dark chocolate, and cinnamon spice.
Finish: Long and lingering, with layers of dark fruit, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
