Description

The Tomatin Cu Bocan Creation #3 is an exceptional single malt Scotch whisky that continues the innovative spirit of the Creation Series. This release is aged in a unique combination of Moroccan Cabernet Sauvignon and North American Rye casks. The unusual cask pairing gives the whisky a distinctive character with notes of rich fruit, spice, and subtle smokiness.


Aromas of baked apple, cooked strawberry, cumin powder, anise, cedar, and a hint of cask char, the flavour profile includes notes of treacle, peach, citrus acidity, and a touch of salinity. The finish is peppery with hints of paprika, brown sugar, and lingering warm fruit sweetness.


The Creation Series from Tomatin's Cu Bocan range is known for exploring experimental cask finishes while maintaining traditional whisky-making techniques. Each release is a limited edition, offering whisky enthusiasts a chance to experience unique and bold flavor profiles. This release has only 4200 available worldwide.

Other Information

The legend of Cù Bòcan, a mysterious and eerie hellhound, has haunted the residents of the remote Highland village of Tomatin for centuries. The hound's increasingly troublesome behavior has only added to the chilling tale, making Cu Bòcan an enduring figure in local lore. Residents speak of glowing eyes and ghostly presence that roams the misty hills, always watching, always waiting. The legend of Cù Bòcan continues to captivate and terrify, a reminder of the ancient and untamed spirit of the Highlands.
