Tomintoul Distillery introduces an exclusive travel range inspired by the Cairngorms National Park
Published Date: 7th August 2023
Tomintoul Single Malt Scotch Whisky has released an exclusive Global Travel Retail (GTR) range, inspired by the distillery's breathtaking natural environment.
The GTR range, made up of three expressions - Tundra (RRP £40), Tarn (RRP £45) and Tor (RRP £55) - will offer the travel trade an introduction to the Speyside brand at an accessible price point.
Each with an individual identity and maturation profile, the collection showcases the versatility of Tomintoul's malt, which is handcrafted in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park. The bespoke packaging also pays homage to the scenic region with stylised illustrations depicting areas within the Cairngorms:
TUNDRA BOURBON CASK: An elegant, balanced and creamy single malt matured entirely in American oak bourbon barrels. The freezing conditions of winter in the Cairngorms results in one of the few places out with the Arctic where areas of tundra exist.
The artwork portrays the Cairngorms Plateau, looking toward Sgor Gaoith, in the Cairngorms National Park
TARN PEATED: An intense smoky, sweet and earthy single malt distilled from peated malted barley. Tomintoul Tarn takes its name from the old Norse word "tjorn" meaning pond. Many tarns can be found in the Cairngorms, some of which are surrounded by ancient peat. The artwork portrays the Ben Avon Summit, in the Cairngorms National Park
TOR OLOROSO SHERRY CASK: A rich and full flavoured single malt finished exclusively in Oloroso Sherry butts from Andalucía, Spain. In the Cairngorms granite rock tors are an impressive feature of the landscape. "Torr" in Scottish Gaelic simply means a free-standing rocky outcrop at the summit of a hill or mountain.
The artwork portrays Loch A'an, in the Cairngorms National Park The collection is available in litre format throughout World Duty Free airports.
