Tobermory 26 yr Single Malt Scotch Limited Edition 49.2

Tobermory 26 Year Old is thefourth release in the distillery’s Hebridean Series, a sequence of mature limited-edition bottlings built from stocks that began life as the now-discontinued Tobermory 15 Year Old. This release was bottled at49.2% ABV and showcases a very long secondary maturation in Oloroso sherry wood. 

Cask program: initially matured inex-bourbon casks, then transferred intoGonzález Byass Oloroso Sherry casks for a further 11 years. So yes, there is substantialwine-based cask influence from Oloroso sherry—this is far more than a short finishing period. 

The profile is rich and mature, withdark brown sugar, fresh strawberry, vanilla fudge, candied ginger and sultanason the nose. The palate bringsvanilla, toffee, walnut, cinnamon pastry, toasted malt and gentle oak, followed by a long finish withwoody warmth and chocolate-covered hazelnut.
