Tomintoul Peaty Tang
70cl / 40%
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling
We assume that this new no-age-statement peated Tomintoul must be similar to the Old Ballantruan but at a reduced strength. Either way, at this price it must be worth a punt for peatheads.
£25.49
(£21.24 ex. VAT)

Producer's Tasting Notes
Colour: Rich gold
Nose: Heathery smoke balanced with subtle floral tones
Palate: Gentle "peat-reek" flavours with a hint of malty nuttiness
Finish: Lingering smoke and peat with a touch of sweetness
Customer Reviews:
Finally, reliable producer's tasting notes. This proved a lot more complex than I had anticipated. Initially the peat smoke on the nose bears a resemblance to Islay-style smoke, particularly that of the younger Bowmores, but it quickly becomes more Speyside-ish. That "peaty tang" rather acts like a skin, because the delicate malty heart of Tomintoul is still there, intact, underneath. Very tasty indeed.
