Over a half century of distilling and the single malts of this distillery located in the epicenter of Speyside, the beating heart of Scotch Whisky production is still new to many whisky lovers. That is one of its biggest strengths. This distillery makes a beautiful base spirit that takes well to nearly all types of maturation and experimentation making the range of offerings from Tomintoul some of the most interesting in all of Scotland. This limited edition release takes a batch of whisky that had aged for a minimum of 12yrs in ex-Bourbon casks and finishes it in select European Oak casks that previously held Oloroso Sherry. This one is good to the last drop.

In 1644, the first taxes were imposed on Scottish distillers by England, with the result that most of the nation’s whisky was soon distilled illicitly. With the Parliament’s passing of the “Excise Act” in 1824, licensing fees for distilleries were much cheaper.
