    12 year old Tomatin

    Tomatin 12 year old

    Elegant and airy with a big smooth texture, the 12 years aged Tomatin is a classic single Highland malt. A true delight for discerning whisky drinkers, Tomatin is carefully matured in tradtional oak barrels to produce the lightly peated, delicate flavour which charms connoisseurs.

    Nose: The complex bouquet contains rich malt and fruity aromas with just a hint of peatiness. 

    Taste: The palate is rewarded with a unique combination of attractive flavours – a balance of apples, pears and malt, with a gentle hint of nuttiness enhanced by the subtle use of sherry wood.  The result is a wonderfully rich and elegant taste producing a long and satisfying finish.

    18 year old Tomatin

    Tomatin 18 year old

    This world class malt has been aged for a minimum of 18 years and married for a period in distinctive Spanish Oloroso sherry casks to produce an exquisite whisky.

    Nose: Intense and spirity to begin.  Delicious sweet sherry burst follows, plateaus with undertones of apple, cinnamon, vanilla, maple syrup with just a hint of smoky heather throughout.

    Taste: Sweet and sugary start with an oaky edge.  Develops in the mouth with a bite of citrus and dark chocolate.  Long lingering dry aftertaste with warming alcohol finish which keeps the mouth alive for several seconds afterwards.

    Colour:  Natural colour.  Deep Golden Amber.

    21 year old Tomatin

    Tomatin 25 year old

    The 25 year old Tomatin is a rich, full whisky with a predominantly malty fragrance. On the palate, the spirit is quite dry, with an aromatic aftertaste - which leads one to naturally address it again.

    Nose: A wondrous combination of ripe pears and orange zest over the resins of pine or cedar.

    Taste: It is honey-sweet for an instant; thereafter, dry, nutty and savoury, through the sweetness hovers on the edges of one’s consciousness well into the long dry aftertaste.

    A smooth well-balanced, deluxe blend which displays the mellowness expected from a top quality brand. Each whisky has a minimum age of 12 years and has been selected to combine all the strengths and subtleness of Scottish whisky at its best.

    It is simply a superlative dram.

    Nose: The excellent balance of fruity and malty aromas reflects the significant use of fine Speysides malt in this blend.

    The Talisman

    The Talisman, finest blended Scotch whisky

    Many distinctive whiskies, carefully selected for their individual styles and collective qualities, are brought together to create The Talisman – a truly exceptional blend which contains a high percentage of first class malt to grain. The Talisman is a whisky of good fortune and great character.

    “Traditionally many of the major whisky blenders have used Tomatin single malt to compliment their world-renowned blends – naturally it’s at the heart of ours too.” Tom McCulloch, Managing Director, The Tomatin Group.

    Nose: A complex bouquet of fruits and maltiness, with some pleasing graininess, provides ample evidence of the skills of the blender.

    Taste: This superior blend delights the palate with lots of distinctive honey and vanilla flavours combined with hints of apple. The well-rounded aftertaste slowly reveals a medley of subtle, peaty notes which linger long on the palate.
