- Description
- Tobermory 17 Year Old, distilled in 2008 and aged in a refill hogshead, captures the Isle of Mull character in a full coastal expression: salt spray, peat smoke, and briny depth grounded by the distillery's signature character. Refill cask maturation preserves the spirit's natural flavors while adding subtle oak complexity and a warming minerality. The texture is elegant and poised, with a dry, maritime finish. This independent bottling suits those seeking authentic island character without excessive cask influence.
