Tomatin Single Malt Whisky 12 Years Miniature, 0,05 L, 40%

Tomatin Single Malt Whisky 12 years 1.0L 43% Tomatin The Tomatin distillery is a Scottish distillery. Translated, its name means 'juniper book'. The whisky distillery can be found on the edge of the Grampian Mountains, where it was founded in 1897, during the peak whisky years. Like many other distilleries, however, the Tomatin distillery fell victim to the rapid end of the whisky boom. However, it reopened in 1909 and was greatly expanded between 1956 and 1962. The Tomatin distillery quickly became the largest in Scotland, with more than twelve million litres of alcohol. The tradition of whisky production was maintained despite its size, but a 'saviour in times of need' was needed. This was the Japanese interest group Takara Shuzp Co. and Okura and was the first intervention by a Japanese company in Scotland. Tomatin 12 YO Because of storage in traditional oak barrels, former bourbon barrels and former sherry barrels, the Tomatin 12 YO gets a very complex aroma. On the nose, a great combination of fruit and fine spices. Green apple, cinnamon, nutmeg and a subtle hint of milk chocolate are the defining features. On the palate, the Tomatin 12 YO is definitely clearer. Fruity notes are particularly prominent. Lemon and orange peel join in, followed by strong notes of spices and wood. The finish is surprisingly refreshing with citrus notes that are rounded off by fine roasted oak aromas.
