This is the 16-year-old single malt Scotch whisky from the Tomintoul distillery, matured in selected bourbon casks. It was crafted by fourth-generation distiller, Robert Fleming and it's his go-to malt to this day. Rather elegant and flavoursome, this one.
Medium-bodied and punchy. There are notes of stemmy cut hay and dried grasses, a leafy green note and a touch of rooty earth and fudge.
Notes of boiled sweets, espresso, mochaccino, ground almonds and granary toast with melted butter. Vanilla fudge and thick cream.
The finish is of good length with notes almond and barley sugar.

Complex , opens up on adding little water.. shows some fruits & medium body.. pleasant fruity not honeyed but very subtle at back of palate
The range of this Malt just goes from great to fabulous I was lucky quite a few years ago to have the enormous pleasure of tasting a 25 year old and will NEVER forget the fabulous taste unfortunately being an OAP probably will never get that chance again. A Malt among Malts with a taste of the heavens !!!!!
I AGREE WITH DUST COMMENTS. A CRAP 16 Y.O. MALT
I never have been much of a scotch drinker. I didn't like the peaty aftertaste but this scotch is really good. Goes down smooth and has a nice finish.
About ten years ago I was visiting Speyside and came across one small brewary and it was Tomitoul. I visited the brewary and tasted 16 years old tomintoul.I found it very tasting and very smooth going through the throat very nicely. I think it s a Rolls Royce of whiskeys. Since then I am only drinking Tomitoul
