Review / Tobermory 25 years old


This new whisky is the third bottling in the rare Hebridean Series from Tobermory on the island of Mull. The Tobermory 25 years old follows the 23- and 24- year old expressions from the previous two years. Initial maturation was in re-fill American oak and ex-Oloroso sherry casks, before a nine year secondary maturation in first-fill ex-Oloroso sherry casks from the famous Gonzalez Byass bodega in Jerez, Spain. There are just 5,298 bottles in this batch of Tobermory 25 years old and these are released at 48.1% ABV. The whisky is both of natural colour and non chill-filtered. It will be available via the Tobermory website and in selected world markets from March 8. A bottle will cost £345/ $US415.
