Winner: Icons of Whisky Scotland 2022: Scotch Islands (Non Islay) 21 Years & Over.
This is a Tobermory worth getting excited about. This 23-year-old expression was made using the old Tobermory 15 Year Old, which were fully matured in Gonzales Byass sherry casks, and then finished for a further eight years in an oloroso sherry cask.
