Tomatin releases 30 Years Old single malt

Tomatin has released a new 30 Years Old single malt from its Highland distillery.

Retailing at £300, the golden-amber expression is a premium batch release decanted into individually numbered bottles, with only 900 available in the UK.

The whisky, finished in first fill ex-Bourbon barrels, is presented in a premium oak box and is accompanied by a carrying case.

Jennifer Masson, Tomatin’s marketing manager, says: “We are delighted to be able to release this premium whisky to our customers just in time for Christmas. This is sure to be a must-have gift for any whisky lover or keen collector.

“Our core range has a wide breadth of whiskies and we expect the 30 Years Old will prove very popular with our customers who are looking for something premium and luxurious, and recognisably Tomatin."

Graham Nicolson, Tomatin’s sales director, says: “This luxurious expression is elegant and flavourful – a neatly packed whisky with taste sensations to delight the senses. From the spices that add an incredible depth, to the creamy buttered vanilla that brings an unbelievable layer of richness – the 30 Years Old is definitely one for every whisky drinker’s gantry."

The 30 Years Old expression replaces the 1988 vintage in Tomatin’s core range and is available from specialist retailers at a cost of RRP £300 and comes in a 70cl bottle (46% ABV).
