- Description
- This 2008 Tullibardine, aged 17 years in refill bourbon barrels and bottled at 58.2%, represents Gordon & MacPhail's commitment to cask strength independent bottlings from quality distilleries. The refill wood keeps oak in balance, allowing the malt's honeyed, spiced character to develop without becoming overly woody. The higher alcohol contributes warmth and presence, amplifying subtle fruit and grain notes on the palate. A bottling for those seeking Highland whisky with texture and proof, best enjoyed with a few drops of water.
