- Description
- Tullibardine's 1991 distillate was aged 18 years in a refill hogshead before Douglas Laing bottled it for their Old Malt Cask range in 2009, yielding 353 bottles. Highland character shines through with citrus, orchard fruit, and malt sweetness, refined by nearly two decades of wood influence without excessive oak dominance. The refill cask allows Tullibardine's distillery character to remain prominent while adding subtle spice and depth. A well-balanced Highland single malt for those who prefer restrained wood influence over lengthy cask aging.
