Tomatin Contrast is an exciting experiment to try and show the difference between bourbon and sherry maturation. For each they have used casks from the same vintages: 1973, 1977, 1988, 1991, 2002 and 2006. All of them in equal measure. So they used just as much old whisky as they did young whisky.

A limited release from Tomatin, this whisky has spent 9 years in ex-rum casks. Decent whisky and priced fairly, but don't expect to be blown away.

A Tomatin 25 Years Old bottled ten years ago (so distilled over 35 years ago). Should be good!

The Tomatin Water is a pleasant surprise. I quite like this profile, although I can see this being a divisive whisky also.

A bit of an eccentric Tomatin 1987 from Càrn Mòr's Celebration of the Cask-series. If you approach this whisky open-minded, there's a good chance you'll be pleasantly surprised by all the interesting things it has to offer.

Some distilleries have magic years, and for Tomatin it is 1976. Wow, what a tropical fruit bomb!

Long overdue, but I finally got around to tasting the Usquebaugh Society's club bottling from 2016, a Tomatin 2004 11 Years Old.
