Whisky Online Auctions Tasting Notes: Tullibardine 2007 Cask No 15. 59%.   

Colour: White Wine  

Nose: Clean, citric and fresh with vanilla, parsley and butter. Plenty of these rather typical grassy and cereal tones with notes of toast, oatmeal and a littler minerality. With water: greener, slightly leafier, more organic with delicate notes of juniper, orange rind and bayleaf.   

Palate: Sharp at first, giving way to more cereal and vanilla sweetness. Some slightly estery fruitiness, aloe vera, watercress, a little white pepper and a touch of muesli. There is a slight citrus sharpness of fresh lemon juice but it's balanced by sweetness and a rising spiciness.

With water: pleasingly herbal and still redolent with these cereal and vanilla notes. A little chlorophyll and camphor. Slight acridity in the finish.  

Impressions: This cask is pretty much exactly where you would expect a 10 year old Tullibardine to be at this stage of its maturation. The whisky is relatively well balanced and shows signs of positive maturity. The distillate is clean and remains fresh and, although the whisky is relatively sweet in style, there is not an excess of cask influence at this stage. Despite its positive attributes, however, there is clearly room for further improvement and this cask should continue to mature well for at least another five years.

Whisky-Online Auctions is a public auction for collectible spirits. Lots are offered for sale in their existing condition and bidders are expected to satisfy themselves as to the condition, authenticity, description and suitability of any Lot before placing a bid.

Although a condition report is normally included within the Lot description, prospective bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect Lots in person prior to bidding. If this is not possible and further information is required, bidders should use the "Ask A Question" facility to request clarification or a more detailed condition report before bidding.

All Lots are sold strictly "as seen" and "as described".

Bidders are responsible for reviewing the final Lot description and any updates issued before bidding.

Due to the age and nature of collectible spirits, natural deterioration may occur over time, including evaporation, ullage, leakage, cork deterioration, capsule degradation, label wear and oxidation. The condition of the liquid, closure, seal and packaging is entirely at the buyer's discretion and risk.

Information relating to bottle age, bottling period, vintage, provenance, rarity and historical background is provided to the best of our knowledge based on available research and industry experience. Any date or bottling period assigned to a Lot represents our opinion at the time of cataloguing and should not be considered a guarantee or warranty.

Any questions relating to condition, authenticity, provenance, fill level, dating or packaging must be raised before bidding.
