Predominantly Speyside characteristics, though blend includes other regions. Slightly peaty, slightly woody, creamy. Lovely, long finish. Beautiful bottle. Worth the price, but personally prefer the Sherry influence on the Tomatin 18. — 12 years ago

Excellent, à la fois légèrement fruité et tourbé. Une formidable longueur. Vu chez un grand connaisseur, Auberge du Pêcheur â Groix. — 11 years ago
Soft, with plum taste. Chocolate and tabac in finish taste. — 12 years ago
Surprisingly tasty. While not as smooth as Balvenie Doublewood or Glenmorangie Lasanta, it is quite enjoyable. — 10 years ago

Light on the color and flavor given the age. This is more on the honey side for color and flavors than heavy wood. The “44th Release” is a vatting of two Tomatin 1994 bourbon hogshead casks (#6422 and #11210), assembled with input from Jim McEwan (the release write-up frames it as a deliberate “vatting” exercise, and they even offered constituent parts). In the nose I get a bit of solvent. On the palate light heat, hits on the sides of the tongue and a bit in the middle. It’s lasts for a while but given it’s not a bruiser you have to focus to notice it’s lingering. — 6 months ago
