Tomatin Dualchas

Dualchas has typical, fence board legs and a clear, light gold appearance. The aroma is of basic bready & bread crust distilled grain. There is somewhat of a full nose of that. The flavor is standard white bread, with a bit of a bite and a touch of fruit. Mouthfeel is medium, and there is a moderately-long finish. RJT

Ok so I like the Tomatin 12 year so figured Id give this a shot. This is aged in virgin oak similar to Deanston Virgin oak which I also think is great. Poured neat, nose jumps out of the glass with chocolate, marshmallow and pastry dough. First thing that came to mind was a chocolate croissant. Settles a bit into some fresh apple, malt, dusty cardboard and traces of wood. Lot going on for a low$20 bottle of scotch. Mouth feel is somewhat thin and the youth shows up with some sizzle but there is a healthy dose of flavor. Neapolitan ice cream, honey and malt morph into apple,dry roast coffee and pine wood. If this had some depth to these flavors it would be amazing. Still very enjoyable. Finishes with vanilla, coffee and malt fading to drying oak. Overall very pleased especially at this price point. Tomatin seems to be a solid brand with high quality malts. Its a light youthful scotch however if you can look past the lack of refinement there is a lot to like........82/100

Smooth, Smokey, slight marshmellow sweetness at the end

Great bargain, on par with Lismore. Simple but flavorful. Not remarkable but just tastes like scotch.

See legacy, Dualchas is the same wonderful scotch just had to be renamed in the USA
