Review by Tomintoul

Colour

Barley gold

Nose

Classic Speyside creamy scents intermingle with hints of banana skin and peppery mace

Palate

Clean, creamy barley-malt and some toffee sweetness balanced by gentle oaky spice

Finish

Enduring with sweetness followed by a nutmeg finalé.

Note

Tomintoul Distillery announces the release of a very special and unique product, The Five Decades, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Tomintoul Distillery, which started distilling in 1965. Individual casks have been chosen to represent the flavours from 50 years of craftsmanship at the distillery. Master Distiller, Robert Fleming, has personally selected casks from 1965, 1975, 1985, 1995 and 2005 and has overseen the marrying of these superb malt whiskies.
