There is no better name for this unique 58 year old expression than Selene, the Titan goddess of the moon - a deity that embodied all things tasteful, beautiful and divine. Characteristics shared by our exceptional single Highland malt. Casks 1781 and 1782 were both filled on the same day, 7th June 1951, and then left slumbering deep in our darkest warehouse. After over half a century, our Master Distiller deemed the time was right and combined their individual aromas, flavours and finishes in a unique creation worthy of the ancient gods themselves.

The Dalmore Distillery was established in 1839 by Alexander Matheson, a trader who made his fortune in illegal opium imports from the Far East. It sits on the banks of the Cromarty Firth overlooking the Black Isle, the "big meadowland", from which it takes its name. The distillery was bought by the MacKenzie family in 1886.

It has been passed down that in 1263, a predecessor of the Clan MacKenzie saved King Alexander III from a rampaging stag whilst out hunting. In reward, the King allowed him to bear the Royal emblem of a 12-pointed stag in his coat of arms. Recently, the MacKenzie motto Luceo non Uro or I shine, not burn has also been taken up by Dalmore.

In a renewed effort to popularise the brand, the packaging was recently re-designed, which includes the addition of the Dalmore's "twelve-pronged stag" from the clan crest on each bottle.

The distillery is best known for producing a single malt scotch whisky of the same name. Its location and flavour qualify it as a "Highland malt". The Dalmore distillery is owned and operated by Whyte and Mackay Ltd, which is owned by United Breweries Group, a large Indian conglomerate.
