Detailed Description
Tomatin Cù Bòcan Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky pays homage to a spectral hound (named Cù Bòcan) who has haunted the distillery for centuries. The hound was once spotted by a distillery employee, who felt compelled “beyond all natural reason” to touch the hound’s fur. As he reached out his hand, the hound dissolved “before his eyes leaving nothing but a vacuum of deathly silence and an inky blue cloud of smoke, soon spirited away across the peat moorland.”
Tomatin Cù Bòcan Single Malt Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes
Nose: Aroma of tropical fruits, vanilla, parsley and green herbs.
Palate: Hints of honeyed smoke, lime, toasted almonds and cloves.
Finish: Trace notes of charcoal, oak, and a sweet smoke.
Distillery Information
Tomatin distillery is a single malt Scotch whisky distillery in the village of Tomatin. Its whisky is classified as being from the Highland region, as it is 25 minutes south of Inverness. Although it is thought that whisky has been distilled on the site since the 16th century, when cattle drivers would buy from a local still, the distillery was not established until 1897, under the name of Tomatin Spey Distillery Co Ltd. The company went bankrupt in 1906, and reopened under new ownership in 1909. After the liquidation of its owners in 1986, it was taken over by Japanese conglomerate Takara Shuzo and was renamed Tomatin Distillery Co Ltd.
