Tamnavulin Double Cask was the first release from the distillery since the 1990s! Over the past 20 or so years, the distillery changed hands from Invergordon Distillers to Whyte & MacKay, closed a few years later and reopened in 2007. Much of its single malt output is used in blends, but a few casks of single malt would sneak out as indie bottlings to allow us a rare taste of Tamnavulin – but now they’ve got their very own expression! They initially mature the whisky in American oak barrels before treating it to a finishing period in sherry casks.
Amber gold in colour, this rich and elegant Speyside single malt whisky has hints of sweet toffee, honey and marzipan on the nose with refreshing pineapple, pear and subtle citrus notes on the palate.
Matured in American Oak Barrels with a Sherry Cask Finish
Set on the banks of the Corrie stream and the river Livet, they draw the water from underground springs in the Easterton hills. Formed by snowmelt from the surrounding mountains, this water is naturally filtered through ancient limestone rock.
