Tomintoul 10 years old Tasting note

By Miguel at 2011 Jul,11 in Tasting , Recommended , Tomintoul

“ A really smooth interesting Speyside single malt. This whisky has a memorable nose with great floral notes. ”

Tomintoul distillery was built in the 1960's in the heart of the famous Speyside-Glenlivet whisky making region.

This Speyside distillery takes fresh water from the Ballantruan spring. This gentle dram is soft, smooth and malty with a biscuity sweetness followed by a long, elegant finish.

A great value single malt that won't dissapoint you.

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (96): inexistent. sweet, honey, tobacco, wood, floral, lavender, some apples and pears. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (92): . sweet, honey, floral, pepper, wood, spices, toffee, apples. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (88): no finish. honey, citrus, floral, spices, a little wood. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Tomintoul 10 year with 92 points over 100.
