Tullibardine 500 Sherry Finish

Description

Brand: Tullibardine
Category: Whisky
Type: Single Malt
Region: Scotland – Highlands
Strength: 43% alc/vol

The deep, nutty brown colour comes from the time spent in the sherry casks as well as lots of the aromas and flavours you’d expect. On the nose there’s intense toffee apple notes with a hint of oatmeal. These notes combine with a spicy, viscous mouthfeel and more Christmas spices on the palate, before ending with sweet dates and a peppery finish.

Tasting notes:
Nose: Dates, sweet red Satsuma plums, dark rich toffee apple, the tannins and the toasted oak adding cinnamon and rich character.
Palate: A powdering of cinnamon coats the stewed fruit mix with a 70% dark cocoa layering the mid palate, with a finish of a fruit punch spiked with marzipan and a cinnamon stick.
