112.97 CHF
Volume: 0.7 liters | Alcohol content: 46% | Non-chill-filtered | No coloring
Palate: Indulgent layers of pecan pie with maple syrup, chocolate ganache, raisins and roasted nuts, paired with ground coffee, tobacco and baking spices.
Finish: Long and warming, with impressions of tiramisu, dark chocolate and Brazil nuts lingering on the tongue.
Fleming succeeds in underscoring the smoothness of his whiskies with full-bodied cask finishes. Pedro Ximénez sherry casks were used for the limited 2009 edition of Tomintoul 14 yo. This luscious single malt, with notes of chocolate ganache, raisins, and coffee, was initially matured in bourbon casks.
The latter also applies to the limited-availability Tomintoul 15 yo, which was then aged in Tawny Port barriques to achieve delicious notes such as rhubarb compote, vanilla pudding and candied almonds.
Thanks to the absence of coloring and chill filtration, the single malts develop authentic, full flavors.
