Tamnavulin Double Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Description

Tamnavulin Double Cask is a whisky from Speyside1. It is bottled at 40% as it is meant as an entry level malt. The nose is pleasant, but light, with notes of apple, vanilla, caramel, and mandarin. The whisky opens up on sweet notes like honey, orange liqueur, and caramel glazed red apple, but with a hint of pilsner, and a slight nuttiness. The oranges make an encore on the palate, joined by ginger and pepper, followed by a lingering bitterness. It is a bit of a pedestrian whisky, but it is priced accordingly.
