distillery’s single malts.
If this Valentine’s Day, you want
celebrate what truly matters with
Tomatin—share a special moment with the
people you love and add a touch of
Highland charm to the occasion then here
are two cocktails which you can do that
with:
Tomatin Peaches and Dream Whisky Cocktail
A modern twist on the classic peaches
and cream, this cocktail is light,
creamy and delightfully moreish.
Featuring Tomatin 10 Year Old, it brings
out soft, sweet notes of peaches,
buttery croissants, crunchy apples,
macadamia nuts and white chocolate, all
beautifully balanced by the whisky’s
subtle ex-bourbon cask influence. Oat
milk keeps the serve smooth and slightly
lighter than traditional cream.
Ingredients:
- 35-50ml of
Tomatin 10 Year Old, exclusively
available at Waitrose or on Amazon
- 35ml of
unsweetened oat milk
- 15ml syrup
from tinned peaches
- A splash of
soda water
To serve:
- Highball or
tall glass
- Bar spoon or
long spoon
- Cubed ice
- Straw
(optional)
- Cocktail
skewers (optional)
Method:
Mix the Tomatin 10 Year Old, tinned
peach syrup and oat milk in a glass
until combined. Fill a tall glass with
cubed ice and stir, finish by topping up
the glass with soda water and garnish
with skewered peaches.
Tomatin Apple of My Eye Whisky Cocktail
Bold, warming, and indulgent, this
cocktail puts Tomatin Double Cask centre
stage. Matured in ex-bourbon and
ex-Oloroso sherry casks, the whisky’s
rich dark fruit, gentle spice, and apple
notes make it a perfect Valentine’s
serve. Muddled fresh apple and a touch
of honey (or dairy-free caramel) create
a sip that’s sweet and balanced.
Ingredients:
- 50ml of
Tomatin Double Cask, exclusively
available in Tesco and on Amazon

honey or dairy free caramel

apples of choice; Tomatin recommends
Pink Lady or Granny Smith apples

skewered apple slices.
