Crafted from the mists of the Highlands and matured for decades in rare casks, the Tomatin Cù Bòcan 1988 Limited Edition is a hauntingly beautiful expression that captures the spirit of tradition and innovation. Named after the legendary spectral hound said to roam the village of Tomatin, this whisky evokes mystery, power, and elegance in every sip.

FAQ

Is this a peated Scotch?
