Description

Cu Bocan has stalked residents of the remote highland village of Tomatin for many centuries, his legend embellished by the Hellhound's increasingly fractious behavior. 

Sightings are rare, once in a generation, always terrifying. A distillery worker, out walking late, was once relentlessly pursued by an imposing black beast, team spiraling from flared nostrils, teeth bared. 

Compelled beyond all natural reason to flee the hound's dense fur he stopped and reached out, hand trembling, only to see the ghostly spectre - Cu Bocan - dissolve before his eyes leaving nothing but a vacuum of deathly silence and an inky blue cloud of smoke, soon spirited away across the peat moorland...

We've unleashed a different kind of beast. This special limited edition Cu Bocan has been crafter by marrying refill hogshead and refill Sherry Butt matured whiskey distilled on 2nd of December 1988. The casks, all of which were home to a popular heavily peated Islay whisky in ther past lives, have been working their peaty magic over the years and now the final creation - earthy, oaky, and sweet - is redy to be devoured. 

Tasting Notes: 

  • Nose: Delicate campfire smoke and sweek ash give way to stewed pears, peach melba, and toasted coconut, Hints of fresh cut grass, heather, and cereal linger in the background with creamy buttermilk. 
  • Palate: Candied tropical fruits are perfectly balanced with an earthy peat tang. In time, warming dried fruit, blood orange, and a gentle nut note emerge. 
  • Finish: Earthy smoke and oak spice linger with a creamy texture.
