An exceptional peated single malt which was distilled at the Tobermory Distillery on the Isle of Mull in September 2005. This which has been maturing gracefully in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels and then it was finished in casks that previously held Hermitage wine from France.

Gordon & Macphail have bottled this at 45% abv, a perfect match for this whisky.. It was bottled in August 2017 and only 4100 bottles were produced worldwide.

A complex Island malt with sweet wine influences.
