Tormore Legacy Casks 21 Year Old 2003

Tormore Legacy Casks 2003 Vintage Cask #647 is an official single-cask release from Tormore Distillery in Speyside. Distilled in May 2003 and bottled in March 2025, the whisky matured for 21 years in a first-fill bourbon barrel before being bottled at 48.4% ABV. Only 226 bottles were produced. Long bourbon-cask maturation complements Tormore's naturally elegant character with mature citrus and orchard fruit, creamy vanilla, sweet malt, pastry and restrained oak spice.

Food Pairing: Pair with roast chicken, glazed pork, creamy Brie, aged cheddar, toasted almonds, poached pears, lemon tart, vanilla custard or buttery shortbread.

Tasting Notes: Mature and elegant, with citrus and orchard fruit balanced by creamy vanilla, sweet malt, buttery pastry and polished oak.

Nose: Fresh lemon peel and orchard fruit lead into vanilla, buttery pastry and delicate floral notes, with mature oak developing underneath. 

Palate: Creamy and fruit-forward, showing lemon curd, vanilla custard and stewed pear alongside sweet oak and gentle warming spice. 

Finish: Long and refined, with lingering citrus, vanilla, mature fruit and a touch of toasted oak.

Serve: Enjoy neat in a tulip-shaped whisky glass. Allowing the whisky to rest before drinking will help reveal its mature fruit and vanilla character; a few drops of water can also be added to taste.
