Green apple, pear, muscovado sugar, dark dried fruit, cinnamon, gingerbread, milk chocolate, malted biscuits — sweet and inviting
Soft and gentle — green fruits, caramel, vanilla, brown sugar, toffee apple — sweet sherry influence without being overwhelming
Short — green and dried fruit fading quickly, malt, warming spice, late hint of apricot jam — pleasant but fleeting
Tamnavulin Sherry Cask — budget Speyside, triple sherry finish. NAS, 40%. £28.
Apple and sugar nose. Soft toffee palate. Short finish with apricot jam. Gentle introduction to sherry Scotch.
Tamnavulin Sherry Cask earns a 6.5 — solid budget option at £28 with real sherry influence. Lacks depth but good value for newcomers.
