Product Description

Distilled in February 1973, the rare single malt was initially matured for 33 years in American oak ex-bourbon barrels in Tomintoul’s Cairngorms warehouse. Before being filled into a single Oloroso Sherry hogshead cask, hand-selected by Master Distiller Robert Fleming, for a further 17 years maturation and bottled shortly after reaching 50 years old in April 2023.

Tomintoul Vintage 1973 Cask No. 261 has been bottled at natural colour and at a cask strength of 42.9% ABV.

Nose: A bouquet reminiscent of old sherry bodegas with aromas of roast pecans, praline, fruitcake and leather.

Palate: Opulent and rich with overlapping layers of crème caramel, toasted oak, rolling tobacco and treacle mingled with stout, cacao and a hint of liquorice.

Finish: Complex and long with notes of caramelised nuts, star anise, dark chocolate ganache fading into stem ginger and gentle spices.
