New Booze: Port Finished Whiskies by Tomatin
May 21, 2014
Port finishes added to Tomatin Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky range
The Tomatin Distillery Co Ltd has announced a change to the line-up of its core range of single malts. A 14-year-old Port Wood Finish and a batch release 1988 vintage are being introduced, while the 15 year old and 30-Year-Old expressions will be removed.
The 14-Year-Old Port Wood Finish has spent around 13 years in Bourbon oak barrels, with a further year in Portuguese port pipes which had previously held Tawny port for between 30 and 40 years. Available worldwide from April 2014.
SRP $55 per 75cl bottle, 46% ABV
The 1988 vintage also takes on an element of port with its contents having been vatted from ex-bourbon and ex-port casks. Presented in a wooden box with its own certificate, this expression will be released in batches, the first batch offering 2500 bottles and available worldwide from April 2014.
SRP $250 per 75cl bottle, 46% ABV
