Introducing The Portuguese Collection, a limited edition series dedicated to and inspired by Portuguese wines!
The Portuguese Collection expressions were each distilled on 8th September 2006 and laid down in traditional Scotch Whisky oak casks for over 8 years. On 23rd April 2015 the whisky was then moved into Tawny Port, Moscatel de Setúbal and Madeira Wine casks for a further 7 years, resulting in a magnificent triad of single malt Scotch Whiskies.
The Port Edition showcases an initial aroma of Black Forest gateau with warm spices and deep forest fruits – blackberries, raspberries and cherries, but the sweeter notes of peach and apricot to finish. The Moscatel Edition offers sweet aromas of marmalade, honey and salted caramel, combined with a hint of citrus balanced perfectly with ginger and star anise. Completing the collection, The Madeira Edition presents pronounced aromas of honey and lemon, which move into flavours of butterscotch and stewed apples – finishing on a treacle note.
To celebrate the collection, our Portuguese Sales Ambassador, Jose Mesquita recalls his relationship with Tomatin and joins Brand Ambassador, Scott Adamson to explore the origins of the Portuguese wine casks used to create this magnificent triad of single malt Scotch Whiskies.
