Tamnavulin Double Cask
(0.75l, 40%)
Lost Scottish Single Malt returns home.
Tamnavulin distillery was founded in 1966, when John Lennon first met Yoko, and with the pure underground springs, they started making fine Single Malts. But the distillery was closed down in 1995 and was reopened more than two decades later. Their Single Malt was mostly used in blends and sometimes a few barrels would come out as indie expressions.
Until 2016, when a fantastic bottle celebrating 50 years of distillery came out and it was Tamnavulin's first original release since the 90s. It's called Double Cask, which means they initially mature the Spirit in American oak barrels, before they give them the final finish in ex-Sherry casks. Resurrection appropriately tastes like Christmas with flavors of festive pudding, spiced rum sweetness and chocolate.

Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most single malts are matured longer).

Erik,
Smooth and sweet with a buttery nose.
Mehdi,
Dry and short honey finish. Easy on the nose but is watery on the palate.
Richard,
The nose held much promise, but could not get past the watery mouth feel.
Will,
Outstanding!
Rex,
Very nice. Smooth and sweet but not overly.
