Tomatin has announced a limited-edition collection of three sherry cask-finished whiskies. The Sherry Collection includes manzanilla, Palo Cortado and Pedro Ximénez sherry expressions.

 

Although the Highland distillery has used sherry casks in its whisky making for more than a century of its history, the new collection has been created in celebration of “modern sherry culture”.

 

Scott Adamson, Tomatin blender and global brand ambassador, said: “The Sherry Collection is a nod to our past and our present; sherry has been widely used in Scotch for decades and Tomatin’s story is no different, however, this collection celebrates our continuous experimentation, craftsmanship, and desire to bring remarkable flavours to our consumers all over the world.”

 

Distilled in 2014, the Manzanilla Edition (RRP £65, 46% ABV) has received a two-year finish in manzanilla butts. According to Tomatin, the 10-year-old whisky has flavours including sourdough bread, dried fruits, chamomile tea, and grapefruit.

 

Bottled at 15 Years Old, the Palo Cortado Edition (RRP £95, 46% ABV) was finished for three years in Palo Cortado butts, and the distillery says it has notes of milk chocolate, Brazil nuts, black tea, and ginger.

 

The oldest whisky in the collection, the Pedro Ximénez Edition (RRP £150, 46% ABV) is 17 Years Old, with eight of those years spent finishing in Pedro Ximénez casks. The tasting notes by Tomatin highlight sticky toffee pudding, lemon curd, espresso, dried fruit, and dark chocolate.

 

Adamson added: “The collection provides a real journey through sherry, highlighting our cask management expertise, to deliver a mixture of expressions, all grounded with our classic Tomatin profile.”   

 

Tomatin recently announced the revival of blended whisky brand the Antiquary, which returns with a new line up of age-statement whiskies. 

 

The Sherry Collection is available now via the Tomatin website and specialist retailers.
