The Tomintoul distillery, which is located in the Scottish Highlands in the Cairngorms National Park and is named after the nearby village of Tomintoul, opened its doors in 1964 and is now owned by Angus Dundee Distillers.
At 370 meters above sea level, Tomintoul is the second highest distillery in Scotland, surpassed only by Braeval Distillery, which was founded in 1973. Although the majority of the 3.2 million liters of alcohol produced annually is exported to the United States for blends, Tomintoul continues to bring special single cask bottlings to the market.
Tomintoul 16 Year Old The Gentle Dram is an exquisite single malt Scotch whisky that masterfully combines the gentle and mild signature of the Tomintoul distillery with the opulent notes of a Sauternes wine cask. After extensive maturation in ex-bourbon American oak casks, this whisky was given a final finish in selected Sauternes wine casks, which are prized for their rich, sweet and complex aromas.
This whisky is limited to 5,094 bottles worldwide.
