Distilled in 2015 and bottled at natural cask strength, this exclusive Spirits of the Sea release marks the long-awaited return of one of our most iconic private bottling series. Always selected and bottled at cask strength, these expressions represent the very best a distillery has to offer. Those fortunate enough to have tasted previous editions still remember them as true hidden gems, combining exceptional quality with remarkable value.

For many years, our Spirits of the Sea whisky festival was a highlight on the calendar of whisky enthusiasts. Each edition was celebrated with its own highly anticipated private bottling, eagerly awaited by collectors and connoisseurs alike. Although it has been more than a decade since the last festival took place, its legacy lives on. While the event itself is not returning just yet—though one can never rule out the future—we simply could not resist bringing back the legendary name for a very special release.

We are proud to introduce the new Spirits of the Sea private bottling: an outstanding 11-year-old Tullibardine, distilled in 2015 and matured to perfection before receiving a beautiful finish in a PX Sherry Hogshead. Rich, indulgent and full of character, this exceptional single malt delivers layers of dark fruits, sweet raisins, toffee and warming spices, balanced by the distillery's elegant spirit. A whisky that perfectly captures the quality and craftsmanship that made the Spirits of the Sea bottlings so memorable.

This limited edition consists of only 60 bottles, retailing at an accessible 69 euros per bottle.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Sweet, juicy raisins, dark dried fruits, and matured sherry casks, complemented by bittersweet espresso beans and 70% cocoa chocolate adding elegant depth.

• Palate: Soft start with raisins and intense sherry, layered with poached pears, vanilla sauce, delicate cocoa powder, and warming forest honey. Floral nuances and syrupy dark fruits like plums, blackberries, and blackcurrants unfold, balanced by nutmeg, cinnamon, clove, and a trace of ground coffee.

• Finish: Long, sweet-dry, and warming with lingering mocha, fruit notes, and a sustained spiciness.
