(Vita Dulcis Advent Calendar 7/24)
Nose: sweet corn with white sugar syrup, fresh milk, summer florals, vanilla, yellow pears and some vegetal aromas. Water releases fresh oranges
Palate: super light and flat, a light sweetness and sourness first, then some vegetal notes on the palate as well
Finish: a wild mix of fruits and vegetables but not really graspable, first a bid a sweet then a young sharpness
Verdict: forgettable but thankfully not too sweet, even becomes a bid unpleasant after a while

@ContemplativeFox The 16 year old is great when you are in the mood for something super smooooooth and relaxing late at night, and I don't mind the Peaty Tang either - it's a very friendly first peaty dram for novices who find Islay whiskies too powerful. However those two are the only whiskies form their lineup I've enjoyed - everything else is too light and distant for my palate.
Unfortunately, "forgettable" is exactly my expectation from Tomintoul
@cascode I hope they don’t.
I didn't know they were still making this. I wonder why they bother?
