Tamnavulin Double Cask Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Speyside single malt that marks one of whisky’s most remarkable comebacks?

The Tamnavulin Double Cask represents a triumphant return after two decades of silence. This Speyside single malt combines the best of both worlds with its unique double maturation process – first in American oak ex-bourbon barrels, then finished in rich sherry casks. Founded in 1966 but dormant since 1995, Tamnavulin’s 2016 revival brought this exceptional expression to life. Compare this approachable style to other refined Speyside options like Tomintoul 16 Years or explore Mortlach’s complex character.
