Tullibardine 20 Year Old

Tullibardine 26 Year Old Cadenhead for The Nectar

For my 30th meeting with this Highland distillery I chose a 26-year-old Tullibardine bottled by Cadenhead, especially for Belgian importer The Nectar.

Nice and fruity on apricots, mandarins and mango with...

Quickly some notes of hay and wood shavings...

This one matured for 34 years on a sherry cask. Tullibardine 1980 – it is a first for me. It was distilled in May 1980 and bottled in June 2014. Wonderfully sweet nose on cocoa butter, mashed...
