With 50 years in the industry, Paterson’s expertise and intimate knowledge of rare and exclusive casks allow him to create the category of super luxury single malt whisky, a category he has been redefining with The Dalmore ever since.
“We have an excellent assemblage of rare and exclusive single malt whisky that can only be found here at The Dalmore flagship. Filipinos will have the privilege to understand the journey of the brand through various character of the spirit. This will surely refine your taste and surpassed your expectations in single malt whisky,” says Knox.
