It’s not everyday you come across a young heavily peated Tomintoul, definitely had to try this considering that I’ve only drank really old 40+yo Tomintouls before. A young whisky but not bad by any means, a good budget Speyside option
Nose
Definitely a very fresh, fruity nose, no signs of peat, slightly floral, very sweet nose
Body
The peatiness comes hard in the palate, lots of smoke, then comes the sweetness, honey, burnt sugars
Finish
Lingering smoke in the finish, long & slightly salty finish, gets a bit bitter towards the very end but not too noticable
