The Cù Bòcan is a mythical being. A ghost dog, that eats children, buy when he finds none, he mostly eats peat, and that makes the Ghostly beast to breath smoke. That is the scottish legend for this dog that allegedly appears in Tomatin Distillery every generation. With this fantastic story, Tomatin has marketed their lightly peated expression. This 2006 vintage is a special edition, bottled at 50%abv and it comes with a branded glass as a present. On the nose, very chemical and yeasty. Stout beer notes, chilli, sulphur, rubber, yeast, very aromatic peat. Liquorice, coffee smoke, oat. After a first sip i got aroma notes of sweet bread, macadamia nuts, danish cookies and cookie dough. On the palate, it is actually peaty-nice, lol. Peppery, peaty, earthy. Very acid, oranges. Sulphuric, pond water, smoke. Aftertaste is the best part. Aromatic smoke, mint liquor. New wood, detergent and wood polisher. Overall, this whisky manages to deliver its promise. A not so light-peat highland malt, with a good abv amount and very enjoyable flavors and aromas. I liked it. My score for it is 87 over 100.
