Finish: Attractively piquant, cloves in particular, plus sugar and a gently smoking tail.

Tullibardine Distillery

Tullibardine Distillery is located in the picturesque town of Blackford, at the foot of the Ochil Hills in Perthshire, Scotland. Founded in 1949 by William Delmé-Evans, the distillery is on the site of a former 12th-century brewery. These historical roots give Tullibardine a rich tradition in both beer and whisky production.

A unique feature of Tullibardine is the use of pure water from the Danny Burn, which contributes to the clarity and freshness of their whiskies. Tullibardine is known for its smooth, creamy and fruity whiskies with notes of vanilla, apple, pear and subtle spices. The whiskies are matured in a variety of cask types, including ex-bourbon, sherry and wine casks, making for a rich and complex taste experience.

Tullibardine offers a wide range of single malts, from standard bottlings to special editions. The combination of a historic location, craftsmanship and high-quality whiskies makes Tullibardine a respected name in the world of Scotch single malt whisky.
