Released in early 2019, this 12 year old single malt from Tobermory was launched in celebration of the distillery returning to life after a two year break! This expression slumbered peacefully in American oak casks for a dozen years before being bottled at 46.3% ABV. What a way to get back in the swing of things!
Pear, peach and apple, with a dusting of brown sugar. Greek yogurt, barley and a hint of cinnamon pastries.
Rounded malt notes once again, now a touch oily. Still packs a hearty helping of stone fruit sweetness.
A flash of orange peel, soft sawdust, toffee and dates.
For me, it's a toss up between the Arran 10yo and this most evenings. Lovely stuff.
This is my favourite malt whisky and never fails to delight. Delivery was very quick despite being close to Christmas, and even gave a 2 hour delivery window on the day of delivery. One small point was that despite buying three different bottles of whisky andbeing offered a voucher for ordering before Christmas, thie voucher was not received.
Bought for my other half he loves it
Not had this iteration of Tobermory before, but it did not disappoint. Smooth, complex and delicious. Very good value for a 46% 12 year old. Liked that the packaging was excellent and included the folded flat original boxes to allow gifting. Top marks
I ordered a bottle of 12 year old tobermory and never did receive a free gift as I should have. The bobble hat that was pictured next to it didn't arrive. The only extra I received was a voucher entitling me to money off next time I placed an order! Hardly a free gift. Disappointed as on my email from master of malt it stated that a free gift would be received with every order placed until Xmas. The whiskey is lovely though.
