Tomatin 14 Year Port Casks

Laatste jaar opgeslagen in portvaten, wat je ook proeft

Afternoon dram after first hiking day at Glamoriston Arms Inn

Honey and hints of blood orange on the nose, but otherwise a faint bouquet. Light, smooth and silky mouthful, with hazelnut, coffee, and malt on the palate. Fairly long and oaky finish, with an unfortunate bitter aftertaste. Overall an oak-heavy dram that did not come together as well as I had hoped.

Honeycomb to the nose, with a floral note that is reminiscent of chamomile - just wonderful. The toasted barley comes through on the palate, with walnuts and wood spices for good measure. The finish is quite short and at times bitter , but I won't complain a great deal. Honestly, I can't for the life of me tell that this was matured in port casks. Overall it's alright.
