    This is in fact my very first Tomintoul. So I have no point of reference. Just so you know. Might even be a good thing. Tomintoul is a lesser known distillery in Speyside, founded in 1964. They produced… read more

    Nose: damp, boggy peat. Dry grass/hay. Slight whiff of burnt paper, but otherwise little in the way of smoke. Also subtle sweetness, hinting at vanilla. Peaty and tangy, all right. Taste: light-bo… read more

  • Tomintoul Peaty Tang - Cheese plate dram

    Certainly peaty on the nose, but no spiciness or other distinct characteristics. Mellow and smooth, but still flavourful. Burnt sugar and peaty smokey again on the palate, but still mild.

    Well, the marketing team has certainly done a good job. This is truly a "gentile dram". I find it quite enjoyable when I want a drink without all the attention required by an expensive, complex bottle… read more

    The color on this is golden honey like jewel quality amber (it spent some time in a sherry cask). The nose is floral almost like a ladies perfume. I got the image of laundry drying on a line in a field… read more
