Tobermory

Tobermory is an Island distillery located in Scotland’s Inner Hebrides. Founded on the Isle of Mull in 1798, it is one of the country’s oldest distilleries, having been operating for over two centuries. The distillery produces both Tobermory and Ledaig single malts. 

Tobermory draws its water from a nearby private loch. This water is peated, which means they use unpeated barley (unlike the Ledaig, which uses peated barley) to ensure just a subtly smokey character. American oak casks are then used for maturation, with sherry casks often used for finishing. Interestingly, ageing takes place at the Deanston distillery. 

After a two-year hiatus, the Tobermory 12 Year Old was released in 2019. This is the flagship bottling in the range, replacing the 10 Year Old. The distillery also offers a variety of limited edition finishes, as well as their Hebridean Series – which includes the stunning 23 year old single malt.
