Tormore 15 years Of. Special Bottling

The wine

A Tormore 15 year old released either in in the late 1990s or in the early 2000s, when the distillery was owned by Allied Domecq. This version was replaced by the 12 year old in 2004, one year before Allied Domecq was bought by Pernod Ricard.

About the Producer Tormore

Scotland, Speyside. Distillery operational. Owner: Pernod Ricard

The first distillery built in the 20th century (1958-1960), Tormore quickly made a name for itself for both its architecture (the distillery's buildings are listed) and its malt born under the shadow of sherry casks, the Tormore 10 Year Old The Pure Highland Malt (80s) and the Tormore 10 Year Old Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky (70s).Nevertheless, it was a distillery designed primarily to produce malt for the blends of its various owners (Long John Distillers, Allied Domecq) known under the names Long John, Ballantine's and Stewart's Cream. Bought by Pernod Ricard in 2005, it would not be until 2014 that bottlings in its own name would really begin to appear, in the form of small batch limited editions aged for 14-16 years in American oak casks.
