NV Cadenhead Tullibardine 13 Year Single Malt Scotch 92 Proof

This is a classic highland malt, through and through. Aged in ex-bourbon cask, this whisky is part of their Original Single Malt Collection. It is not chill-filtered, has no artificial coloring added and is bottled at a hearty 92 Proof. The nose begins light and fruity with notes of tropical fruits and biscuits. It then works its way into more complex notes of lemongrass, toast, crème brulee, pine nuts and a slight bit of smoke. The palate shows a little roundness with a soft, pretty texture, and leads into more savory notes, featuring vanilla bean, stewed apricot, hops, cacao nibs and a touch of pine. It finishes easy and with good length. It is a comfortable, very familiar whisky. Like slipping into that old London Fog raincoat. It still fits and is very well made.
