Tamnavulin Double Cask is the first new expression released by this distillery in over 20 years, released to celebrate the 50th anniversary of this distillery. The whisky is initially matured in American oak ex-bourbon barrels before receiving a second maturation in former Sherry casks. On the nose, there are aromas of toffee, sweet honey, fresh apple, and some more subtle citrus notes. A drop of water brings out some light nuttiness. On the palate, fruity flavours of pear, pineapple and peach, with just a little light spice. A little oak character comes through in the finish. |
