This 14 year old has been bottled at a higher strength to previous Tomintoul releases. This has helped bring out more of the flavour, and the character of the dram.
Gentle, very subtle. Warm pastries, apple blossom, hints of toffee, citrus, gentle fruit.
Vanilla, creamy, more blossom, barley.
Good length, spices.

Very good single malt, I don't want to share.
This is a good whisky, but it's no longer the all-natural non chill-filtered, no added colouring bottling. It now contains caramel colouring, which is detrimental to the craft presentation. All the other official bottlings have artificial colour and are chill-filtered, I thought the whole point of this one was that it's a natural expression. Evidently not any more. Not sure if the decision has come from the distillery or Angus Dundee (the owners), but it's a step backwards, and a sneaky one at that.
Awesome. One of the best
Beautifully crafted. Marvellous experience. The light floral nose surprised my palate with its malty, creamy, vanilla, pastry-like taste. It escalates the experience to another level when the dram is swallowed. The taste just lingers on, with such gentleness yet imposing to the taste memory. Almost a perfect match to the steamed Asian cuisine I had that evening. Will be stocking up if I can get hold of it here!
Amazing! Opened a bottle at a Super Bowl party and had my friend texting me the next morning for the name of this pleasant dram.
