Description
The Tobermory 21 Years Old Single Malt Oloroso Cask Finish is an exceptional island single malt Scotch whisky from the historic Tobermory Distillery on the Isle of Mull. At 46.3% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle and presented in a high-quality gift box (UK), this bottling embodies the creative signature of the island’s only distillery. The colourful harbour town of Tobermory and the rugged beauty of the Hebrides serve as inspiration for a whisky that combines the island’s maritime character with long maturation and a refined Oloroso sherry cask finish. Like all of the distillery’s premium bottlings, this whisky is bottled without chill filtration and without the addition of colouring, thereby preserving its natural texture and full spectrum of flavours.
After 21 years of maturation, the single malt undergoes a careful finish in Oloroso sherry casks, which lends it additional depth and elegance. Tobermory’s fruity, unpeated style blends with intense notes of cherry wood, brown sugar, caramelised pineapple and toffee. This interplay of aromas is complemented by marzipan, hazelnuts and molasses, whilst the influence of the Isle of Mull remains ever-present with a delicate maritime freshness and subtle salty nuances. This small, artisanal distillery has stood for the highest quality for centuries, combining the traditional art of distillation with the unmistakable character of its island home.

The Tobermory 21 Years Old Single Malt Oloroso Cask Finish reveals its complex aromas best when enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water. Its combination of sherry sweetness, tropical fruits and maritime freshness pairs superbly with crème brûlée, caramelised pineapple, nutty biscuits or high-quality dark chocolate. This Islay single malt Scotch whisky is also an excellent accompaniment to mature hard cheese or as an exclusive digestif following a special meal. The 21-year maturation, the Oloroso cask finish, the bottling without chill filtration or colouring, and the unmistakable signature of the Tobermory Distillery make this bottling a special treat for lovers of high-quality island whiskies.
