I contacted the online store for guidance on buying my brothers birtbday gift. The whiskey types were explained very well and the store specialist was extremely helpful. I could only tell him two things. My price range and that my brother likes single malts. The delivery was fast and my brother was astonished to receive such a lovely gift and told me that the whiskey was wonderful. Thank you again
Excellent wood selection from Tomatin, the dram has a terrific natural red hue imbued from the use of port casks for some of its maturation. Very smooth at 14yo, with a very fruit-laden taste profile on the palate and finish, at 46% abv a very easy everyday drinler.
Tried this whiskey in Northern Ireland a few weeks ago with family and decided to buy a bottle ready for the return meeting.
A little rough around the edges due to the age and strength. Heavy sherry and wood when neat. A touch of water smooths it out and reduces the woody flavour letting the sherry dominate.
Stunning winter dram, slight spice, chocolatey , huge amounts of sweet cherry , sugar, & Xmas cake malty sultanas.At cask strength this 13 yr old dram is a steal! Another belter from signatory.
