Description
A 15-year-old expression of Old Balantruan, the peated line from Tomintoul distillery. Bottled at 50% ABV, this is a laid-back beast of a whisky; big peat smoke rolls around the mouth along with softer Speyside flavours – vanilla, toffee and a touch of woodiness.
TASTING NOTES
Color: Barely gold
Nose: Gentle “peat-reek” with mild gun-flint notes softened by sweet, mature, creamy Speyside malt. Hints of herbal-heathery spice.
Palate: The smokiness is very apparent yet soft and tempered with toffee sweetness and gentle oaky spice.
