Nose: quite a dry smokiness; no shortage of herbal notes, too… Taste: soft oils encourage the vanillas as much as the light smoke. Finish: reverts to its naturally dry stance; a few spices liven things up while some late mocha does offer a sweeter edge. Balance: continually smoulders…
Tomatin released this 28 year old expression under its Cù Bòcan label. This cask strength variant was matured in refill hogsheads and refill sherry butts that previously contained heavily-peated Islay single malt. The nose is sweet and fruity, with apples and pears, background vanilla, and sweet, light smoke. The palate is voluptuous and sherry-sweet, with chili peppers and subtle, earthy peat smoke. The finish is slowly drying, with persistent spice, nuts, and smoke. Oct 2016, www.whiskyadvocate.com
Informazioni sul produttore
Founded in 1897, Highland distillery Tomatin has swelled and shrunk during subsequent whisky booms and busts. Its approachable, light, unpeated style was so popular in blends that Tomatin became the largest malt distillery in Scotland.
