This "TOMATIN BIG T 12 Year Old, 750ml, 43%" is a blended Scotch whisky with Tomatin Distillery as the key malt. This bottle commemorates the 10th anniversary of the release of "TOMATIN BIG T GOLD LABEL," which has been in circulation since the 1970s. It was released in the mid-1980s for the Japanese market as the pinnacle of the BIG T series.
The liquor is light and smooth, aiming to create a blend that is not overpowering while still taking advantage of the characteristics of Tomatin, a Highland malt. The aroma is sweet, reminiscent of vanilla and maple syrup, with fragrant malt flavors and hints of dry grain and hay. The taste is mild, dominated by sweet notes like brown sugar, caramelized candy, and candy apples. A subtle peaty or vegetal bitterness may also emerge from the background.
This bottle was released in the 1980s, when Tomatin Distillery was acquired by Japan's Takara Shuzo (1986), making it a special blend that reflects the historical context of a time when the distillery had deep ties with the Japanese market.
(Note: The current "Tomatin 12 Year Old" is sold as a single malt whisky and has different contents from this old bottle.)
As this is an old bottle, the liquid level and label may have changed over time. Please check the condition before purchasing.
