Whisky Online Auctions Tasting Notes: Tullibardine Cask #267
Colour: Deep amber / polished rosewood.
Nose: This one feels very much about the cask at first nosing. Lots of sweetened black tea, jasmine, tea tree oils, creme de menthe, black pepper and cured meats. Thick, fatty, earthy and with plenty hessian and coal dust. There's also toasted oak, ripe banana, milk chocolate, walnuts and mixed dark fruits soaked in cognac. Quite excellent.
Palate: Big, thick, resinous and sweet sherry. Lots of coco, walnuts, strawberry wine, gingerbread, lemon thyme, espresso, bovril and damp sack cloth. Some wee touches of treacle, salty old oloroso and rancio as well. It's really the sherry that does the talking with this one but it's an excellent and characterful - and most importantly clean - style of sherry so it works very well.
Finish: Long, earthy, gingery, spicy and ultimately syrupy, sweet and slightly mentholated.
Comments: An excellent, clean and richly flavoured sherry cask which has served this Tullibardine well. Would continue to mature well for at least another decade.
