Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: powdered sugar and lemon juice on French crepes and Belgian waffles and whipped topping; honeydew melons, polished church pews and cramel apples.
Palate: soft creamy and very decadent with bags of honey, toasted oak and loads of licorice; as it settles down the waffle and crepe notes reemerge with more whipped topping, powdered sugar and crisp citrus: lemon peel, lemon juice and lemon drops; the melons and other fruits are there but hiding under the polished church pews.
Finish: long, creamy and coating with fading toasty oak, fruits and spices.
Comment: at 5 years old, cask strength, and nearly $40 less expensive than the distillery 15 year this one is a gem, easily the best Tobermory currently in store.
