TULLIBARDINE HIGHLAND MALT 500 SHERRY FINNISH 70CL 40%

Released in 2013, this fabulous bottling from Tullibardine sees the rich, malty whisky finished for 12 months in top-quality 500-litre sherry butts. 

It was matured first in bourbon casks before spending some time in 500 litre sherry butts, most of which previously held Pedro Ximenez. 

The deep, nutty brown colour comes from the time spent in the sherry casks as well as lots of the aromas and flavours you’d expect.

On the nose there’s intense toffee apple notes with a hint of oatmeal. These notes combine with a spicy, viscous mouthfeel and more Christmas spices on the palate, before ending with sweet dates and a peppery finish.
