Sherry
14 year old single malt from Tomintoul, matured in a sherry butt from August 2005 to January 2020. It was bottled up at cask strength with an outturn of 694 bottles. Though Tomintoul's tagline is "The Gentle Dram", at 61.9% ABV, it still could use a drop or two of water to help mellow it out and unlock some of the fruity, vanilla-rich notes.
Malty, biscuit notes merge with raisins, hazel nuts, nougat and angelica.
Subtle and refined sherry influence. Complex but delicate mix of nuts, raisins and oaky spice.
Complex and well-balanced mix of sweet and spicy tones.
whaaw, so used to the " gentle dram" This is gentle but with the 61,9 % alchohol it is most probably the best Tomintoul that I have tasted
