A gentle 10 year old from the Speyside distillery, Tomintoul, matured exclusively in American oak bourbon barrels. Tomintoul 10 Year Old was introduced to the range in 2002, two years after the distillery was bought by Angus Dundee, and has been awarded gold medals for its taste by some of the most prestigious spirits competitions in the world.
Medium-body and well-balanced. There are notes of vanilla fudge and barley. Tones of malt extract and espresso, hints of mochaccino and oak.
Pleasingly viscous, with notes of barley sugar, toasty cereals, acacia honey and malt extract. Honeycomb, toffee and a touch of vanilla fudge.
Quite short, yet charming.

Bought is as a gift. Very harsh, tasted like a very cheap NAS blend. The worst single malt I've tried in my life. Was that a bad batch or have the distillery changed the way they make it?
My bottle was too harsh and young. Nowhere near the expected when reading the tasting notes. I will not buy it again.
I debated a long time before purchasing Tomintoul, as some people really like it, and others' not so much: Well, I am now in the "not so much" category. Really did not find it at all enjoyable to drink -- quite odd tasting and rather harsh, not at all smooth and mellow like they quote on the bottle. There are so many other Scotch whiskeys' that I would rather purchase than this.
This is a very drinkable whisky. More reminiscent of a top Irish whiskey. Undeniably smooth. Not much complexity here. I enjoyed it, especially the hints of vanilla and touch of citrus I get. I only wish it had more to offer from a bit higher ABV, even if it was 43% instead of the 40%. As it is I could see enjoying this after dinner sitting outside on a summer evening with some friends. If you’re looking for a very nice dessert whisky then you could do far worse.
My go to Whisky caramel and toffee nose, smooth and full flavoured honey and caramel. I dont drink a lot of whisky but have tried many, this is my favourite by a fare way
