Tullibardine 25 Year Old (70cl, 43%)
The Tullibardine Fine Aged collection is comprised of oldest whiskies, which have been matured on site at the distillery. Both rare and carefully nurtured throughout the years, the Fine Aged Collection makes up a unique collection symbolic of Tullibardine’s dedication and quest for excellence in whisky creation.
The Tullibardine 25 year old has been matured for a minimum of 25 years in ex-sherry hogsheads. It is beautifully aged, with wonderful hues of red, orange and brown.
Tullibardine distillery in Perthshire was built in 1949 and was quickly acquired by blending firm, Brodie Hepburn. Through a series of mergers and acquisitions, the distillery came under ownership of Whyte & Mackay in 1993, who shut it down following year. In the preceding decades, its large production capacity had filled its even larger warehouses. In addition to selling the stock to third-party blenders, Whyte & Mackay used it for their own products, including some well-regarded official single malt releases. Greater emphasis was placed on this when it was sold to new owners in 2003, who re-casked much of the stock in order to launch this reinvigorated version of the Tullibardine brand.
