  Tamnavulin 12 years old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 505956-105768-40

  A yellow band and a discontinued label that still hold on to Tamnavulin's classic Speyside sweetness. A fragment of the distillery's design history that no longer sits on the shelf.

  Please note: this is a discontinued label version with a yellow band, no longer produced by the distillery.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin 12 Year Old is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in oak casks and bottled at 40%.

  This bottling carries the older yellow band that Tamnavulin used before the distillery modernised its label design. Tamnavulin sits on the River Livet in Speyside and is now owned by Whyte & Mackay, part of the Philippine Emperador group. The distillery was founded in 1966 and is known for a soft, approachable style that has historically also served as a backbone in several well-known blends.

  The 12 Year Old has for many years been a fixture in Tamnavulin's range, matured in standard oak casks with no additional finish. With its yellow band, this bottle belongs to an earlier chapter of the distillery's history, before the current core range of sherry, port and wine-cask finishes took over the shelves.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Honey and ripe apple mingle with a hint of vanilla biscuit and a touch of dried citrus peel.

  Palate

  Soft malt and caramel with a light nutty body that glides across the palate without sharp edges.

  Finish

  Short to medium, closing on a gentle honeyed sweetness with a whisper of oak.

  Tamnavulin 1991/2019 Old Malt Cask 27 year old Single Speyside Malt Whisky 48,6%

  Item no.: 22244222554-225

  Twenty-seven years after distillation, a single refill hogshead remains the only witness. Cask No. HL16113 held a mature, rounded Tamnavulin that Hunter Laing chose to let stand entirely on its own.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin 1991/2019 Old Malt Cask 27 Year Old is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky, matured in a refill hogshead and bottled at 48.6%.

  The whisky is bottled under Old Malt Cask, a series originally created by Douglas Laing in 1998 and continued since 2013 by Hunter Laing & Co., after Stewart Laing left the family business and set up his own house together with sons Scott and Andrew. The series is known for a consistent strength around 50% and for letting each individual cask's character speak for itself.

  This release comes from Cask No. HL16113, a refill hogshead that held the whisky from distillation in 1991 to bottling in 2019 - 27 years in total. Only 308 bottles were drawn from this single cask, with no chill-filtration and no added colour, so what reaches the glass is the pure, time-worn character of this particular cask.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Ripe apple and a trace of beeswax meet gentle butter and a muted note of old oak.

  Palate

  Round and oily, with notes of honey cake, dried apricot and a warm streak of clove spice.

  Finish

  Long and dry, closing on a hint of walnut and a lightly tannic oak from the many years of maturation.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin Distillery 2009/2024 Cooper's Choice 15 Year Old Malaga Cask is a Single Speyside Scotch Whisky, matured in American oak casks with a finishing period in a Malaga wine cask and bottled at 50%.

  Tamnavulin Distillery 2010 Little Brown Dog Port Pipe Single Speyside Malt Whisky 52,4%

  Item no.: 222355-9876

  Fourteen years on bourbon casks and one last, active push through a port pipe. Little Brown Dog has found a Tamnavulin cask that insists on tasting of dark berries and warm spice.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin Distillery 2010 Little Brown Dog Port Pipe is a Single Speyside Scotch Whisky, matured in bourbon casks with a finishing period in a port pipe and bottled at 52.4%.

  Little Brown Dog Spirits is an independent bottler founded in Aberdeenshire in 2018 by Andrew Smith and Chris Reid, recognisable by the little brown dog that features on every label. The company buys casks from distilleries across Scotland and bottles them under its own name, often in small, hand-picked batches.

  This release was distilled at Tamnavulin in 2010 and matured on bourbon casks until 2024, when the whisky was moved into a highly active port pipe. That short but intense finishing period has given the whisky a pronounced character of dark berries and spice. Only 424 bottles were produced of this Small Batch release, bottled at cask strength with no chill-filtration.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Dark cherry and blackberry meet a warm note of clove and a hint of freshly baked bun.

  Palate

  Full-bodied and berry-driven, with notes of blackcurrant jelly, dark chocolate and a peppery spice streak from the cask strength.

  Finish

  Long and winey, closing on dried raspberry and a warm, lightly toasted sweetness.

  Tamnavulin Double Cask Single Speyside Malt Whisky 40%

  Item no.: 22227865449-504

  Two cask types, one rounded whole. Tamnavulin Double Cask is the distillery's take on a soft everyday dram, where American oak and used sherry casks meet in a calm, golden glass.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin Double Cask is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky, matured in American oak casks and finished in used sherry casks, bottled at 40%.

  Double Cask is part of Tamnavulin's core range and represents the distillery's contemporary, approachable style, prioritising softness over complexity. After primary maturation in American oak, the whisky moves into casks that previously held sherry, adding an extra layer of sweetness and a light floral character without losing the underlying Speyside lightness.

  The style is designed as an accessible entry point into the Tamnavulin range and is often used as a reference point for the distillery's other finished expressions, including Sherry Cask Edition and the various wine-cask series.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Golden honey and ripe apple with a light floral scent and a hint of vanilla custard.

  Palate

  Medium-bodied and soft, with notes of caramel, dried apricot and a lightly tart freshness that keeps the whisky light on the palate.

  Finish

  Short to medium, refreshing and clean, closing on a hint of nuts and oak.

  Tamnavulin Red Wine Cask Edition No. 2 Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 059763-615-353

  Mahogany gold in the glass and Spanish red wine in the casks. Red Wine Cask Edition No. 2 is Tamnavulin's take on a whisky that tastes of caramelised orange and red berries in the same breath.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin Red Wine Cask Edition No. 2 is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in American oak casks and finished in Spanish Grenache red wine casks, bottled at 40%.

  Edition No. 2 is part of Tamnavulin's ongoing series of wine cask releases, where the distillery's soft, sweet base style is set against different European wine styles. Here the choice falls on Grenache, a red wine grape widely grown in Spain, known for lending casks bold fruit and a lightly spiced warmth.

  After maturing in American oak, the whisky moves into the used Grenache casks, where it picks up colour and flavour from the red wine. The result is a mahogany-gold whisky with a distinct layer of red fruit on top of Tamnavulin's characteristic sweetness.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Caramelised orange and marzipan with nuances of vanilla and a light creamy sweetness.

  Palate

  Charming notes of red berries meet subtle tones of toffee apple, peach and a hint of coffee.

  Finish

  Short to medium, softly rounded, closing on a hint of red wine fruit and lightly toasted oak.

  Tamnavulin Sherry Cask Edition Single Speyside Malt Whisky 40%

  Item no.: 22227865449-18756

  Amber gold in the glass and three different sherry casks behind the scenes. Sherry Cask Edition is Tamnavulin's most layered everyday whisky, where each cask has left its own mark.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin Sherry Cask Edition is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky, matured in American oak casks and finished in three different types of sherry cask, bottled at 40%.

  Where Double Cask relies on a single type of used sherry cask for its finish, Sherry Cask Edition goes a step further and combines three different sherry cask types. That gives the whisky a broader layer of complexity without losing the underlying Speyside expression from the American oak. Combining several cask types is a technique often used to achieve a more layered sweetness than a single cask can deliver alone.

  The result is an amber-gold whisky where caramel, dried fruit and spice play off each other across several layers, from nose to finish.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Vanilla, caramel and banana, accompanied by notes of milk chocolate and a hint of fresh ginger.

  Palate

  Layers of maple syrup, raisin and orange with hints of apricot and melon.

  Finish

  Complex and rich, with impressions of fruitcake and overripe apricot that linger.

  Item no.: 222111154487-9632

  Ruby gold in the glass and a full litre on the shelf. Tempranillo Cask Edition is Tamnavulin's fullest-bodied wine cask release, where Spanish red wine casks leave a clear mark of berries and syrup.

  Expert description

  Tamnavulin Tempranillo Cask Edition is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky, matured in American oak casks and finished in used Tempranillo red wine casks, bottled at 40% in a 1 litre bottle.

  This release stands apart from the distillery's other wine cask series by being sold in a 1 litre bottle rather than the usual 70cl, making it a natural choice for the home bar or for gift purchases in larger volumes.
