Tomatin Decades
A Master’s Masterwork
Tomatin is one of the highest ,at over a thousand feet, and larger, 5 million liters capacity, distilleries in the Scotch Highlands
After working his way up its ranks, Douglas Campbell became its Master Distiller before assuming his emeritus role as its ambassador traveling the world promoting the brand.
2011 marked his fiftieth year at Tomatin. To celebrate, he chose some of his favorites of the best casks from each decade he served, going back as far as 1967.
From them he blended this limited edition malt. It is a whiskey born of art and emotion, a Master Distiller’s summation of his brilliant career.
A wonderful single malt of depth and intricacy, it will bring pleasure to those fortunate enough to own a bottle.
It comes in a nice presentation box and very nice as a gift. A whisky of this age and origin should cost hundreds of dollars, but we offer it for much less.
But there are only 8 bottles of this special once in a carrer malt.
Tomatin Decades
Nose: A lovely sweet maltiness gives way to juicy, fruity aromas of fresh peach, apple and pear with gentile hints of dried apricot, and raisins. Delicate flowery notes sit on top of rich pine and robust oak wood. The hint of distant smoldering fire wafts in the background.
Palate: The taste buds are tantalized by intense flavors of tropical, rich Christmas cake, aniseed, cinnamon and creamy fudge.
Finish: Mellow and memorable, like the man himself.
