Tasting Notes

Embark on a delightful journey with Tomintoul's Merlot Wine Cask Finish, a harmonious blend of Scottish craftsmanship and French elegance. The nose greets you with a captivating symphony of red berries, cinnamon's warmth, zesty orange peel, and the comforting aroma of sweet tobacco. As it caresses your palate, indulge in the rich flavors of dark chocolate intertwined with the tangy notes of blackcurrant jam, the subtle spice of nutmeg, and the toasted nuttiness of almonds. The finish lingers like a sweet reverie, unveiling candied peels and the delicate floral essence of honey. Expertly crafted by master distiller Robert Fleming, this small-batch gem is a testament to the art of marrying single malt Scotch whisky aged in bourbon American oak barrels with the finesse of Merlot wine casks from the esteemed Bordeaux region, creating a truly exceptional and unforgettable dram.
