Past, present & future: Tormore in six drams
Room A1
October 10
14:45-15:30 p.m.
Although Tormore was the first new Speyside distillery of the 20th century and had been producing single malt since 1959, it was highly prized for use in blends. Now, Elixir Distillers are bringing it back into the spotlight. Ranging from ‘Vintage’ to ‘Vision’, six drams show how past, present and future come together, during the masterclass led by Senior BA Douglas Cook.
