Tasting Notes

Colour

Warm amber-gold with coppery highlights and a honeyed, sunset glow.

Nose

Subtle peat smoke entwines with roasted malt and espresso, creating a warm, toasted aroma. Sweet orange marmalade and creamy toffee unfold from the Moscatel cask, while vanilla and honey-kissed oak lend depth. A lifted note of raisin, citrus blossom, and a faint winey sweetness round out a dessert-like, elegant nose.

Palate

Silky and lightly peated, this whisky glides with creamy butter and honeyed sweetness. Orange marmalade and citrus zest unfold alongside espresso, dark chocolate and roasted malt notes from the Imperial Stout casks. A kiss of moscatel sweetness adds brightness and fruit, while subtle spice deepens the mid-palate, delivering a long, polished finish.

Finish

Silky and evolving, the finish carries a gentle peat whisper with espresso and dark cocoa from the Imperial Stout casks. Sweet orange marmalade lingers, brightened by citrus zest and a warm Moscatel glow. Subtle oak and roasted notes drift in, leaving a velvety, long finish that rises into a refined, lingering warmth.

Cu Bocan
(koo BOH-kan) Cù Bòcan is Tomatin’s lightly peated Highland single malt, launched in 2013 after the distillery recognised the quality of the peated spirit it had been producing for one week each year since 2005. Named after a ghost dog said to haunt the village of Tomatin, it is made with lightly peated Scottish barley and distilled every winter in limited batches, creating a style built around subtle smoke and balanced sweetness rather than heavy peat.
