TOMATIN 1967 (50 YEARS)
Tomatin 1967 was distilled on 24th November 1967. Following 50 years of maturation at Tomatin Distillery, in cask Oloroso Sherry Butt number 35817, Tomatin 50 Year Old has been bottled on 20th September 2018 in its most natural form yielding just 70 special bottles at 45.3% abv.
Gentle maturation in the cool, stable environment found high above sea level lets the subtle character of this distinctive 50 year old single malt emerge. The use of a carefully selected cask ensures that the softer characters of the precious spirit are never overpowered.
The Tomatin 50 Year Old delivers a myriad of rich and complex flavours. On the nose, aromas of freshly felled oak in an orchard of apples, pears and plums can be expected. Once on the palate, it releases bursts of exotic tropical fruits and dried apricots, sweetened with flavours of vanilla toffee, crème caramel and flame raisins. Spice and fruits balance perfectly, providing a luxurious and velvety finish.
This exceptional whisky is securely encased within an individually numbered, handblown Glencairn crystal decanter. The decanter is luxuriously presented within a striking Italian crafted wooden box, furnished with soft, premium Italian leather. Sealed with a wooden transit cork, an engraved, solid brass and gold plated glass stopper is also provided. Each box comes with an individually-numbered book, hand-signed by Distillery Manager, Graham Eunson. Finally, a premium leather carry bag completes the presentation.
The Tomatin 50 Year Old is our distillery’s oldest expression of Tomadin distillery.
