Tomatin 14 Years Port Cask Highland Single Malt [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Highland single malt that perfectly balances traditional Scottish craftsmanship with innovative Port cask finishing?

The Tomatin 14 Years Port Cask Highland Single Malt represents exceptional value in premium Scottish whisky, showcasing the distillery’s mastery of dual maturation techniques. This expression spends 14 years developing character in ex-bourbon barrels before receiving a distinctive finish in 50-year-old tawny Port casks. While collectors might consider the Dalmore 21 Years Highland expression for special occasions, this Tomatin offers remarkable complexity at an accessible point. Unlike virgin oak Highland malts, the Port influence adds distinctive berry sweetness without overwhelming the Highland character.
