Tamnavulin Double Cask was the first release from the distillery since the 1990s! Over the past 20 or so years, the distillery changed hands from Invergordon Distillers to Whyte & MacKay, closed a few years later and reopened in 2007. Much of its single malt output is used in blends, but a few casks of single malt would sneak out as indie bottlings to allow us a rare taste of Tamnavulin - but now they've got their very own expression! They initially mature the whisky in American oak barrels before treating it to a finishing period in sherry casks.
Chocolate mousse, extra thick double cream with a dusting of brown sugar, stewed apples and blackberries.
Christmas pudding, chocolate brownies, yellow plum and toffee-coated barley.
Spiced rum sweetness lingers on the finish.
Great inexpensive whisky if your not really in to the strong smokey sours. Mellow flavour with more than a hint of caramel. If you're a bit partial to American Whiskey you'll love this. My favourite for the money.
Lovely whisky with an appealing color and a distinctive sweet taste. Enjoyed best with just a splash of water to bring out the full flavor. Excellent value.
started off with a bit of a bite but sweetened up at the finish quite enjoyable tho
An above average whisky, which is likely to have wider appeal. For my tastes it was a little toffee-like and perhaps rather too "sweet". However, I enjoyed it. Recommended for whisky newbies.
This is a very pleasant whisky - hint of sweetness and exceptional value
