It’s called the Dalmore Cask Curation Series Port Edition, and as its name suggests, it’s the second release in partnership with Portugal’s Symington Family Estates. The iconic winemakers gave The Dalmore exclusive access to its rarest Graham’s Port casks to finish these single-malt whiskies.

The best part? This isn’t just one whisky release. The Dalmore is actually releasing three limited-edition expressions. The first is a 27-year-old single-malt whisky that was finished in Graham’s 1997 Single Harvest Tawny Port casks. The second is a 30-year-old single-malt whisky finished in Graham’s 1994 Single Harvest Tawny Port casks. The last expression is a 43-year-old single-malt whisky finished in Graham’s 1952 Single Harvest Tawny Port casks.

Each expression is non-chill filtered, features natural color, and comes in the famous bottle The Dalmore is known for in a bespoke leather-finished travel case handmade in Florence, Italy.

There aren’t many distilleries as innovative and exciting as Bardstown Bourbon Company. The Kentucky-based distillery is all about pushing the boundaries of what a whiskey can be. Its most recent release definitely lives up to those lofty expectations.
Bardstown Cathedral French Oak Bourbon

Bardstown Cathedral French Oak Bourbon is the inaugural launch in that new Distillery Reserve collection. It’s a blend of 100% Kentucky bourbons that were matured between nine and eighteen years. It gets its name because this well-curated blend is finished for fourteen months in 300-year-old French oak from the Bercé Forest in the Loire Valley in France. To put it into perspective, the trees were planted during the reign of Louis XIV (circa 1715). The wood was harvested to restore Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
