Tullibardine 500 Sherry Cask Finish, 43%,
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2022 ● Reviewer: Julia Higgins ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
The sherry cask influence is apparent, and to great effect. The alluring nose is a symphony of raisins, Fig Newtons, quince paste, white peach, and dried pineapple. More fruit follows on the palate, which is delicate despite being heavy on fruit leather flavors. A touch of honey and a zip of lemon peel add even more dimension. The lengthy finish is fruity, with delightful wood spice at the tail end. (7,800 bottles)Best Value
