- Description
- Tullibardine's 2006 vintage spent 17 years in sherry hogshead cask, resulting in a rich mahogany spirit bottled at 52.7% ABV by Whisky Sponge & Decadent Drinks. Sherry influence dominates the palate with raisins, dates, and dark chocolate framed by warming spice and subtle wood tannins. The texture is full and mouth-coating, with a lingering finish of dried fruit and oak. Ideally suited as an after-dinner dram for those who favour sherry-cask influence.
