- Description
- This Tomatin spent 16 years in a single first-fill bourbon barrel before Gordon & MacPhail bottled it at cask strength (59% ABV) in April 2019, yielding just 189 bottles. The ex-bourbon maturation would have preserved the Highland distillery's natural vanilla and cereal notes while adding oak spice and depth.
