Tomatin Cù Bòcan 1988 Vintage Limited Edition Scotch Whisky

Tomatin Cù Bòcan 1988 Vintage Limited Edition is a special limited release from Tomatin Distillery — a lightly peated Highland single malt from the Monadhliath Mountains distillery, crafted by marrying refill hogshead and refill sherry butt-matured whisky distilled on 2 December 1988, limited to just 2,200 bottles.

Cù Bòcan is Tomatin’s lightly peated expression — distinct from the standard unpeated Tomatin range. The 1988 vintage uses refill casks (both hogsheads and sherry butts) allowing the distillery’s natural character and the light peat smoke to be the primary expression without aggressive new wood competition. The marriage of refill hogshead (vanilla, caramel, fruit) and refill sherry butt (subtle dried fruit and warmth) produces the balanced result characteristic of Tomatin’s distillery philosophy.
