Continuing
with some Fathers Day whisky gift
suggestions here are a few from Tomatin.
Tomatin can be a whisky that some gift
buyers may overlook when buying a whisky
gift as they are not familiar with the
whisky brand but that would be a shame
as the distillery located on the
Speyside border produces some
outstanding whiskies.
Tomatin distillery exudes a rich
tapestry of history, heritage, and
undeniable allure. At the heart of its
award-winning collection lies a devoted
team, many of whom have worked at the
distillery for much of their adult lives
following in the footsteps of
generations of their families before
them.
Family is intrinsic to what makes
Tomatin and its whisky so special,
making it the ideal choice for a
Father’s Day gift.
So if you are looking for a Fathers Day
whisky gift then here is a few ideas
from Tomatin for you to consider, I can
highly recommend the Tomatin Legacy, 12
and 14 Year Old.
Tomatin 12 Year Old This is the award-winning flagship from Tomatin’s
core range: described as a silky smooth single malt
with a rich and fruity aroma.
Matured in a combination of
ex-bourbon, ex-Spanish sherry and
traditional Scotch whisky casks. Initial
aromas of wild heather, pine and cedar
soon reveal sweeter notes of crème
caramel with apples, pears and mango,
before a full-bodied and buttery finish.
The quality of this whisky was
recognised at the world-renowned
International Spirits Challenge
receiving Gold in 2022 and 2021, and
most recently, picking up a Gold at the
San Fransisco World Spirits Competition
in 2023.
Tomatin LegacyThis unpeated Scotch
is said to boast aromas of
vanilla bean, white chocolate, and
cinnamon. Time spent in bourbon barrels
and virgin oak casks brings a light
sweetness to the whisky, which also
offers a palate of gentle waves of fresh
fruit peppered with ginger before a
light, clean finish.
Tomatin 14 Year OldA rare single malt from Tomatin’s core
range: described as silky and sweet, benefiting from
its time spent in Tawny Port casks
This distinctive 14 year old single malt
whisky is matured in a combination of
Bourbon barrels and Port casks which
have previously held port for around 50
years.
Tomatin Portuguese CollectionExperience the magic of Tomatin’s
craftsmanship in cask maturations with
Tomatin’s Portuguese Collection. The
limited-edition collection was launched
last year to celebrate the relationship
the distillery holds with its cask
providers overseas.
Distilled on 8th September 2006 and laid
down in traditional oak casks for over
eight years. On 23rd April 2015 the
whisky was then moved into Tawny Port,
Moscatel de Setúbal and Madeira Wine
casks for a further seven years,
resulting in a magnificent triad of
single malt Scotch Whiskies.
#1 – The Port Edition single malt (70cl,
46% ABV, £90)
The first in the Collection is a unique
edition matured in Tawny Port Casks,
boasting aromas of Black Forest gateau
that are met with warm spices and
develop into fresh summer fruits. The
taste is deep with forest fruits
including blackberries, raspberries, and
cherries, alongside sweeter notes of
peach and apricot which return on the
finish.
#2 – The Moscatel Edition single malt
(70cl, 46%, £90)
Part two of the Portuguese Collection is
the Moscatel Edition which is matured in
Moscatel de Setúbal Casks. This
distinctive single malt boasts sweet
aromas of marmalade, honey and salted
caramel that has a hint of citrus which
balances perfectly with ginger and star
anise on the palate. A sweet whisky with
a long, dessert wine finish.
#3 – The Maderia Edition single malt
(70cl, 46%, £90)
Part three of the Portuguese Collection
is the Maderia Edition which is matured
in Maderia Wine casks. Initial aromas of
honey and lemon take the lead, while
flavours of butterscotch and stewed
apples dance on the palate, before a
treacly and fruity finish.
