Tomatin EARTH Five Virtues Series Limited Edition PEATED MALT 46% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

Scotch whisky distiller Tomatin has revealed the third expression in its Five Virtues Series – Earth.

Earth- the third virtue, is exemplified in an edition rich in intense and - unusually for Tomatin - peaty flavours. A consequence of maturing whisky made with peat-dried malted barley in refill Hogshead casks.

This is truly a unique expression. An intriguing mix of vanilla, burning heather and black fruits with sweet, light smoke. Unlike any other Tomatin, it has a salty smokiness with a complex and ever-changing finish.

Tasting notes

The natural elements involved in the whisky production process inspired Tomatin’s limited edition single malt series, Five Virtues: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.

Having been distilled with peat-dried malted barley, the Earth single malt has a distinct character, giving it rich, intense and peaty flavours. A mix of vanilla, burning heather and black fruit aromas combine with a sweet, light smokey taste.

The Five Virtues series comes packaged in cartons decorated with contemporary art, created by Eva Ullrich. To mark the launch of the new Earth expression, Tomatin will exhibit all five of the paintings by Eva in a gallery within the distillery’s Still House.
