Tomatin Strathdearn Sherry Cask Finish

Tomatin is known for its smooth and fruity style, and this independent bottling in Murray McDavid's Cask Craft series takes that character to the next level. Maturation in traditional casks and a finish in sherry casks gives this whisky an extra layer of complexity. The combination of Tomatin's natural sweetness and the rich sherry cask influences creates a balanced and full flavour experience.
