Tullibardine 28 Year Old 1993 (Thompson Bros.) (47.6%)
Tullibardine
Tasting Notes
This 28-year-old Tullibardine whisky, bottled by the renowned Thompson Bros., is a true gem from the Highlands. Upon nosing, it unveils a rich tapestry of aromas, with cocoa and vanilla pods intertwined with zesty lemon peel and a delightful whiff of grapefruit, all complemented by a gentle floral honey note. On the palate, it bursts forth with bold barley flavors, accompanied by a peppery spice that dances alongside sweet honey and cakey vanilla. Hints of cinnamon and anise gradually emerge, mingling harmoniously with nutty toasted oak. The finish lingers with candied orange, crystalized ginger, and a whisper of maple, culminating in a delightful honeyed flapjack essence. This exquisite single malt, with an outturn of only 347 bottles, is a true testament to the art of patient maturation and expert craftsmanship.
