The full story & FAQBackground · serving notes · questions
Tamnavulin
Tamnavulin opened in 1966 in the hamlet of Tomnavoulin, on the banks of the River Livet near Ballindalloch. The name is said to mean "the mill on the hill" in Gaelic. Owned by Whyte & Mackay, the distillery reopened in 2007 after a twelve-year silence.
The whisky
The spirit is matured in American ex-bourbon casks, then finished in casks that held French Cabernet Sauvignon red wine. Tamnavulin describes the effect as elegant and refined, and the finished whisky has a tawny gold colour.
How to enjoy it
Sip it neat or with a few drops of water to bring out the red fruit. It suits roast meats, lamb and firm cheeses, and also works over ice.
Frequently asked
Is this the same whisky as the Tamnavulin Red Wine Cask Edition?
Some UK retailers list a Tamnavulin Red Wine Cask Edition that is also finished in French Cabernet Sauvignon casks at 40% ABV. Tamnavulin's current range names this bottling the French Cabernet Sauvignon Cask Edition, alongside other red wine editions such as American Cabernet Sauvignon and German Pinot Noir.
Does the wine finish make it sweet?
It is fruit-led rather than sweet: expect poached pear, nectarine and plum, with almond and gingerbread spice for balance.
