Tobermory 27 Year Old Oloroso Cask Finish (Expression 5)

This release is the fifth and final expression in Tobermory’s acclaimed Hebridean Series. Inspired by Mull’s enduring connection to the seafaring community, it embodies both the spirit of the island and the distillery’s heritage.

The whisky began its journey in ex-Bourbon casks, originally part of the Tobermory 15 Year Old release, before spending an additional 12 years in González Byass Oloroso Sherry casks. This extended maturation has created a whisky of remarkable depth, combining the distillery’s fruity Highland style with the richness of Spanish oak.

The result is an indulgent single malt with Tobermory’s signature notes of pineapple and silky toffee caramel, elevated by the decadence of zesty marmalade and warming cinnamon spice.

Tasting Notes by Tobermory:
Nose: An aroma rich with the scent of cinnamon pastries and dark black fruits. Sweet apricot and dried figs are joined by the earthy notes of toasted oak, all rounded off with a bright twist of orange zest.
Palate: A thick layer of marmalade spreads across the palate, complemented by warming cinnamon spice. The flavours unfold to reveal fig rolls, blackcurrant, and brambles, with a touch of honey-roasted nuts and a hint of treacle toffee.
Finish: The finish is steady and lasting, featuring red berry compote, fresh mandarins, and a pinch of nutmeg for good measure.
