If you're going to celebrate 30 years as a master distiller, doing so with a 30 year old whisky seems like just the way to do it - and that's exactly what Tomintoul and its master distiller Robert Fleming have done! This 30 year old expression was initially aged in a bourbon cask, before being moved over to an Oloroso sherry butt for a 10-year-long finishing period. It was released in 2020, the 30th year in which Robert Fleming has been master distiller at Tomintoul, with only 481 bottles produced.
Rich and pronounced with aromas of crème caramel and Christmas spices mingled with sultanas and candied peel.
Stewed green apples, milk chocolate, dates and raisins, bound in sweet cake spices and nutty toasted oak, with background hints of chamomile and fireplace soot.
Notes of Brazil nut toffee and toasted cinnamon bagels fade into a dried fruit linger.
