Tamnavulin 1990 (bottled 2008) - Connoisseurs Choice (Gordon & MacPhail)
A 1990 vintage from the Tamnavulin distillery, matured in refill sherry hogsheads and bottled by Gordon and MacPhail.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
The nose is quite light and elegant with a subtlety of flavour. There are notes of cut hay and mixed fruits and a menthol note. There are some oily notes and a touch of caramel. The palate is of medium-body and very smooth. There is an oiliness that carries everything so effortlessly with notes of sherried fruits and peels and a hint of winter spice. There are cut herbal notes with peppermint leaves. The finish is quite short but a beautifully written piece as the smoke tapers out, gently.
