Description
A super surprise after a rather unappealing colour! My notes are stacked with vivid descriptors best summed up as sherry trifle made with vanilla sponge cake, there’s also listed bananas, mint, raisins, lemon, gun oil, bazooka Joes. A rich nutty delivery and violets in the swallow. An ace for complexity, if you like that sort of thing. Straw gold colour whisky
Delicate, honeyed-cream with light floral malt, hints of wild fennel and a complex of sweetness
Elegant, round, soft and gentle
Dry oak vanillas and a clean malt with some creamy sweetness
Long and creamy with a proclivity to dryness and a slight peppery tone
Beautifully located near to the village of Tomintoul, the highest village in the Highlands of Scotland in the prestigious Glenlivet Estate at the heart of the Speyside region lies Tomintoul Distillery.
In the middle of the last century, it took more than a year to find the purest of water sources for use in the malt whisky-making process. Finally, the search located the Ballantruan Spring, an exceptional source of the purest of waters nestling in the Cromdale Hills. The quest over, Tomintoul Distillery was built close to the Ballantruan Spring and adjacent to the majestic River Avon.
The natural environment, high altitude, pure air and the exclusive use of the outstanding quality of water from the Ballantruan Spring, combine to enhance the superb quality of Tomintoul Speyside Glenlivet Single Malt the gentle dram.
