Review #188 |
This 18
year old is finished in Oloroso sherry casks. It is very smooth and the sherry
notes mixes very well with the wood influence in the smell. Grapes, nuts and
light oak influence evaporates from the glass.
Mellow
sherry notes in the taste. Very sweet, and the sweetness carries out in the
finish. A lot of plums, vanilla and gentle oak. These casks must have been
toasted at lowest level possible, which gives this whisky a light and mellow
finish even though it is finished in Oloroso sherry casks.
One of the
better standard expressions from Tomatin and everybody should know that I love
Oloroso so it is not a big surprise I like it. Especially I like the mix of bourbon
and Oloroso casks in this one, but the score is going to be 86/100 (22/21/22/21).
