Caskhound Double Release: Ben Nevis 26yo & Tobermory 30yo

Introduction & Overview

The Caskhound introduces a luxurious double release featuring two meticulously selected single malts from its Exquisite Casks series: the Ben Nevis 26 Years Old 1999 The Caskhound and the Tobermory 30 Years Old 1995 The Caskhound . The former is a 26-year-old Highland whisky matured entirely in a sherry hogshead, while the latter is a 30-year-old Island malt finished in an ex-bourbon cask. Both express rich maturity and distinctive character, ideal for seasoned whisky aficionados looking to reward themselves after the festive season.
