Tullibardine 9 years 2015 - 2025 100 Proof Edition #44

Tullibardine, located at the edge of the Highlands, is known for its approachable style and affinity for sherry cask maturation. This 9-year-old bottling from 2015, released in 2025 as part of the 100 Proof Edition, was matured in a combination of first and second fill Oloroso sherry butts. The result is a refined and layered whisky where rich sherry notes meet the fresh, fruity character of the distillery. Bottled at 57.1% ABV, it delivers power with finesse.

Soft yet expressive with flavours of raisins, milk chocolate and burnt sugar. Spicy touches of cinnamon and nutmeg are supported by roasted wood and marzipan. Creamy and elegant on the palate.

Finish

Medium length with lingering sherry sweetness, gentle spice and a warm note of hazelnut and oak.
