Cadenhead's·Chairman's StockTomatin

This 13-year-old single malt from Tomatin was bottled by Cadenhead's at cask strength, with no reduction from its natural 51.3% ABV. It was matured in a bourbon cask, a style often associated with notes of vanilla, oak, and soft orchard fruit.

For a novice drinker, expect a straightforward Highland-style whisky with a fuller texture and more intensity than standard bottlings. The higher strength can make it feel lively and concentrated, so a few drops of water may help open it up.
