Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 토모어 특유의 가벼운 곡물 향 위로 리필 셰리 펀천이 더한 건과일 향이 먼저 두드러진다. 24년이라는 긴 숙성을 거치며 건포도와 호두, 부드러운 오크의 단맛이 또렷이 발전한다. 56.2도의 팰럿은 진한 검은 과일과 가벼운 향신료가 어우러지며 구조감이 단단하다. 오래 익은 스페이사이드다운 깊은 여운이 길게 이어지며 진중하게 마무리된다.

Sweet and indeed smoky - no arguments there. This kind of smoked hay, smoked oatmeal and smoked seaweed combination. Smoky indeed. The Islay cask must have had a few litres of something sloshing about in its depths. Could you argue this is a blended malt? Answers on a postcard to Chateau Whiskyfun in Turckheim... anyway, back to the malt in glass... I’m not getting much from the port side of things but the overall profile is perfectly clean, farmy, smoky, slightly coastal and rather pleasing. Some gravel-laced porridge (an old Drumnadrochit delicacy, try it) and a little gingerbread. With water: some smouldering car tyres, WD40, graphite and a few crushed sea shells

again the peaty aspects are loudest to begin with. Some berryish sweetness that I presume comes from the Port. Blind I’d probably have guessed Mongolian Goat Wine before picking Tormore. Speaking of which, there is a rather earthy and animalistic side to this one. Almost dung-esque in fact, approaching a suspiciously dirty cow udder? With water: mezcal, lemon oil, smoky bacon and plain old sweet peat. Is this Tormore or Bowmore?
timer Finish
Reasonably long, pleasingly smoky, this animal/dung/earth/farmyard curiosity is back with a vengeance
