Description
xA drop of pure highland gold
Handcrafted with Passion
Sauternes Cask Finish
Barrels, or Barriques as they are called in Bordeaux, vary in volume from one region to another because of tradition and the local history of winemaking. In Bordeaux a Barrique holds 225 litres. After a long maturation in ex bourbon oak casks, the Tullibardine 225 sauternes cask finish was re-casked into 225 litre sauternes barrels for a further period of maturation.
The history of Tullibardine for distilling and brewing is one of the oldest in Scotland. Located in Blackford, the gateway to the Highlands, it was here in 1488 that the young King James IV of Scotland stopped by on his return from his coronation, to purchase beer from the local brewery. This is recorded as the first public purchase of beer. In 1947 the brewery was converted to a distillery.
We have a plentiful supply of fresh spring water from the surrounding Ochil hills, which are also well known for the gold that was mined from them. The water which reaches the distillery has taken 15 years to reach the Danny Burn, which runs alongside the distillery.
Tullibardine is a traditional working distillery.
As one of the few remaining family owned distilleries. our small team of Artisan distillers take enormous pride in handcratting our single malt whisky.
