About this bottle
A scotch whisky from Scotland from Tobermory, Tobermory 17 Year Old 2003 Madeira Cask Finish is part of the Spirit Hives whiskey selection. It is bottled at 54.2% ABV, carrying a 17-year age statement, in a 700 ml bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: Sweet, clove-studded orange, oily oak, and wafts of floral tea, with layers of gloopy toffee and clotted cream; on the palate: Nutty malt and maple syrup are balanced by creamy pastel de nata, leading to zesty peels and juicy sultanas. Warming root ginger rests beneath; finish: Stewed prunes and raisins soften prickles of pepper, with aromatic baking spices and distant leather towards the end.

Serving & pairing
Serve neat with a few drops of water to open the aromas. Lighter styles suit smoked salmon and shortbread; peated styles suit blue cheese and oysters.
Single malt or blended Scotch?
Single malt means one distillery, 100% malted barley, pot stills. Blended Scotch mixes malt whisky from several distilleries with lighter grain whisky, aiming for consistency and approachability. Blended malt (no grain whisky) sits between the two. Neither is inherently better; single malts show one distillery’s character while good blends show balance.
