Tullibardine The Murray Double Wood

A staple for any respectable home bar.

If we set out to find the oldest brewing and distilling spot in Scotland, Tullibardine would definitely be in the running. Back in the 15th century, King James IV — a young, strapping man — stopped into the local brewery here on the way to his coronation. The old brewery was transformed into a distillery back in 1946 and has become a solid maker of Single Malt Whisky. After a brief closing in 1995, it was brought back to life in 2003 — and we’re all pretty happy about that. They produce a wide range of aged Single Malts, several finished "double-wood" Whiskies, and some older limited editions — any of them a solid and approachable daily dram.

Tullibardine The Murray Double Wood was distilled in 2005 at their Perthshire Distillery. It was first aged in first-fill Bourbon casks before being finished in first-fill Sherry casks. You should prepare for a smooth and exceptionally velvety tasting experience with gentle flavors of sherried fruits, honey, cinnamon, and just a touch of espresso with cream-drizzled fresh strawberries.
