Terra Verde RETRO is an Original Dominican spirit inspired by the colorful and carefree cocktail culture of the 1990s. Crafted from sugar cane and aged in bourbon barrels, it blends classic craftsmanship with playful flavor infusions to reimagine the era when cocktails were bold, fruity, and full of personality.

Built in 1819 by Hugh Munro and his brother, wealthy landlords in the north of Scotland. A distillery that is used as a Northern Highland base for many a blend due to it's rich and complex flavour profile. In 1933 the distillery is sold to DCL, and increases in 1970 from 4 to 6 pot stills. In 2014 a new distillery is built with 6 new Pot Stills.

Tasting Notes

Nose
Juniper and wildflowers envelop the nose

Mouth
The taste is dry, yet vibrant - clean and nuanced by emerald grasses, golden citrus, and white pepper with a round, floral body. Crisp enough to enjoy straight and of course excellent in cocktails both classic and contemporary.

The casks numbered 49541 and 49542 have been gracefully resting in warehouse 6 since they were filled on September 21, 1978, gently and slowly maturing the precious spirit they contain. After thirty years, the spirit was transferred into the finest Spanish first-fill Oloroso Sherry casks and was aged for an additional decade under the careful and enduring care of Tomatin distillery's custodians.

Often considered the preferred grape variety for aging, here we find the raw Baco Armagnac, without any artifice, identical to how it emerges from the still.

All the flavors of Provence, the spices from distant lands, the roundness of vanilla, the creaminess and sweetness of licorice, the hints of mint and pepper bring character and complexity.

The apples are mixed, crushed and pressed. The apple juice is fermented right out to give cider to be distilled. Double distillation is carried out 6 months after the fermentation has taken place. The first distillation gives the "petite eau" at 30% by volume and it is the second distillation, that of the "petite eau" which gives the Calvados.Aging: Six years minimum. In toasted 400 L oak barrels, 25% of which are new.

Many years ago, they filled new make Finlaggan into Rioja Red Wine Hogsheads. Coming from the Rioja region within the Basque country of Spain, these Hogsheads have given the signature heavily peated Finlaggan an extra layer of rich mouth coating red berried fruit flavours. The result is a truly mouthwatering sweet and smoky dram to savour. The extrac-tion from the oak casks has given this whisky a beautifully rich natural coppery rose gold colour.
