Tomintoul 19 Year Old 1995 - Single Cask (Master of Malt)
Yet another cracking single cask we've been lucky enough to bottle, this time from Tomintoul, pronounced 'Tom-in-Towel' (although it's best not to think about that for too long). Distilled on 1st May 1995, it filled 186 bottles at natural cask strength on 1st April 2015. No foolin'.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Quite light and fragrant, with toasted English muffins - one side buttered, the other with a thin layer of honey. It moves on to crunchy apples, which grow warmer and slightly stewed later. Cinnamon and white pepper spice.
Palate
Really bursts on the palate with whole walnut and dried apples. Developing juiciness with plenty of sultanas. Orange peels and a little bit of spicy cardamom.
Finish
Very nutty on the finish, with crumbly chocolate digestives lasting on to the end.
Overall
Wonderfully rounded and nutty, new notes emerge throughout but not one is out of place here.
