The concluding installment in the "Five Virtues series" is dedicated to Water, paying homage to the five elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—integral in crafting the whisky. This edition is a tribute to Tomatin's exclusive spring, the Alt-na-Frith Burn, a constant water source. The whisky undergoes maturation, with half in sherry hogheads casks and the remaining half in second-fill bourbon barrels. Limited to just 6,000 bottles, this series is a testament to craftsmanship and nature's influence.

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.
Penderyn Legend constitutes the ideal introduction to the first Welsh whisky distillery. Fully matured in bourbon casks, this single malt spent a few additional months in Madeira casks, giving it sweet and fruity notes. The red dragon, featured in many folk tales, also appears on the national flag of Wales. Nestled near the Brecon Beacons National Park, Penderyn's single malts derive their gentle and subtle character from the combination of a unique distillation technique using bespoke Faraday stills and a distinctive maturation art, the result of Dr. Jim Swan’s expertise and carried on since 2018 by master distiller Aista Phillips.

The Tomatin 2014 10Y Sherry Edition Manzanilla is a single malt from the prestigious series "The Sherry Collection".
This limited edition pays homage to the modern culture of sherry, particularly through the distinctive influence of Manzanilla casks.
Distilled in 2014 and aged for 10 years, this whisky embodies the essence of sherry cask maturation, with a final finishing period of 2 years in Manzanilla casks.
The result is a rich and complex spirit, perfectly blending the centuries-old traditions of Scottish whisky with the delicate and saline notes of fortified Spanish wine.
