Better than some scotches that are aged longer and more costly. Excellent value for such a fine 12 year, highly drinkable.
-
It has a wonderfully mellow and deep taste. Quite rich
-
Fair eroma, rather neutral to the nose. Smells like some cedar and light peat. Doesn't do much for me as a wow factor but could be an all night sort of dram. Its drinkability is high because there's no "bite" at the end or aftertaste. Price driven product.
-
This is a new scotch to me. Been drinking Highland scotches for over 30 years. This is more like a dessert scotch with the very smooth aftertaste. Very different & Pleasant change. Not my favorite but will be a regular.

This whisky does feel a bit immature, however I can't really complain based on the price. If you're looking for a nice daily drink that doesn't break the bank, then this is an option. I would add a bit of water to open it up a bit, as I am sure you will agree. Although this offering won't blow you away, it won't offend you either. If you have some extra money lying around, and you want to explore, this is a good try. I would purchase this whisky again in the future.

I had a great first bottle! This brand was unknown to me, despite their long heritage. Tastes 3x the price. Or more.
-
Excellent for the money
-
I enjoy Tomatin. Very flavorful, and fruit notes. It is my daily drink as well.
-
Malty honey sweetness with a hint of fruit in the nose. Clean pleasant finish. Great introductory scotch, and a bargain for those who want a good quality malt at a great price. My daily drink.
-
I agree with the last entry. This is a fantastic mixer. I will always have it on hand for mixing. Ideal with Drambuie & cola. I am not fond of it on its own.

Saw this on a shelf of a store while traveling. 12 year single malt for this price? Yes, please! But after trying, it tastes like a much more immature scotch... basically a somewhat nicer but more costly Famous Grouse. It strangely sits between being a premium mixer and just ok on its own. Everything about the taste just misses for me and there''s much better whiskey choices in this price range. It''s worth a try but it just doesn''t have anything to make it a go-to sipper.
-
I''ve tried a fair amount of whiskey and this is a pretty good and for $the price it has a lot to offer. It is sweet, slightly peaty and nutty. I''d be hard pressed to find a better value out there. Good scotch just doesn''t get much cheaper.
-
I love it
-
Great single malt, especially for the price. I found it quite sweet, so I would suggest this as a starter or finishing taste if you''re exploring a few Scotches in one sitting. For a comparison, I would liken this to the Balvenie 12-year Double Wood.
-
Deceptively good whisky that always surprises on how eminently drinkable it is. Not the most complex but then you don''t always want that. Good value too!
-
A very good single malt for the price.
-
Very smooth sweet and pleasurable
-
Delicious. I love the fruity malty sherry influenced sweetness that evolves in to a woody nutty finish..... The no-age statement Legacy single malt (or now most recently renamed to Dualchas for come copyright snafu reason) is the first Tomatin experience I''ve had---love that stuff too.... This 12 year is a delectable follow up and am enjoying a bit on ice as I type this........
-
This is one fine tasting 12 year! Reasonably priced too! I always keep a bottle in stock.
-
I find this to be a first class single malt and well worth waiting for
