Tomintoul 12 Year Old is a Speyside single malt distilled in 2012. It first matured in ex-Bourbon casks of American oak, then the whiskies were married and finished in Oloroso sherry butts from Andalusia. Master Distiller Robert Fleming selected the whisky for this limited 2012 edition.
The Oloroso butts add richer fruit character and complexity. Dried fruits, crème caramel, golden syrup and toffee sit alongside roasted nuts and candied pecans, with cocoa, coffee, tobacco and wood spices on the darker side. It is bottled at 40% in a 0.7 litre bottle with a tube.
Tasting Notes
Sweet, with dried fruits, crème caramel and roasted nuts, plus cocoa powder and baking spices.
Buttery and layered: golden syrup, crunchy toffee and chocolate raisins, with fruit bread, roasted coffee beans and tobacco.
Maple oat biscuits, candied pecans and caffè latte, followed by tiramisu, chocolate ganache and warming wood spices.
