Product Description

SINCE 1897 there has been a quiet revolution unfolding in the heart of the Scottish Highland High up amongst the smooth, rounded peaks of the Monachliath Mountains there is no room for the rugged and robust. Here patience a gentle hand and a passion for purity rule the day. In this idyllic spot the naturally soft water of the Alt-na-frith burn is introduced to tender Scottish barley Later, from the tall, slim copper stills of the Tomatin Distillery a mellow, fruity spirit is born. Gentle maturation in the cool, stable environment found high above sea level lets the subtle character of this distinctive Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky emerge. The use of carefully selected casks ensures that the softer characters of the precious spirit are never overpowered. You have heard the myths of this often wild and beautiful place. Now hear the truth: there is a softer side to the Highlands. There is Tomatin. The Tomatin 12 Year Old is smooth and silky, having been matured in traditional Scotch Whisky ex-Bourbon and ex-Spanish Sherry casks. A rich, fruity aroma is the prelude o sweet flavours of ripe apples, pears and a subtle hint of nut before the long, pleasantly oily finish.

Falstaff · October 2024
Sweetish-malty aroma with caramel and dried fruit, vanilla and fine spice. With a little time, some nutty notes are added. Analogous on the palate, fine spice, dried and exotic fruit, some caramel, full body and a gentle finish.

Golden brown in colour and with a typical aroma reminiscent of heather, light malt and a little peach. … Nothing offends, everything is in its place, long and warming in the finish!
93 ptsSeptember 2022falstaff.com ↗
Honey, vanilla and caramel cavort in the rich nose. Milk chocolate and hazelnut are added on the palate. Hints of leather and dark tobacco towards the finish.
93 ptsNovember 2021falstaff.com ↗
The basic fruity aroma is supported with woody smoke and distinct sherry notes. The palate is juicy with again nice barrel spice, smoky core and dried fruits that extend into the finish.
93 ptsAugust 2019falstaff.com ↗
Dried stone fruit marinated in Oloroso sherry and Créme Brulee create an exciting aroma. Orange and coffee on the palate, with leathery wood notes. A hint of coconut creeps in on the finish.
93 ptsNovember 2016falstaff.com ↗
Individual style with an tropical and banana flavour. There are clear dry sherry notes on the palate, the velvety structure again has plenty of fruit to offer. Relatively light finish.
Distiller · Stephanie Moreno
The palate is not as exciting as the nose with the whisky feeling a bit hollow and lackluster in comparison. The finish is full of wood spices more heather, but leaves you with a bitter taste in your mouth.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
