Tormore 12-Year-Old Roslin Distillers is a remarkable bottling from the Tormore distillery, located in the heart of the Speyside region in Scotland. This whisky was distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2023, giving it an age of 12 years. It has been matured in a refill bourbon cask and bottled at an impressive cask strength of 63.5% ABV.

On the nose, you are greeted by classic ex-bourbon aromas, dominated by notes of vanilla bean, white grapes, honeydew melon, and a hint of the cask's character. Due to the high alcohol content, there may be a noticeable alcoholic presence, which can be softened with the addition of a little water.

On the palate, initial spicy pastry notes emerge, followed by vanilla. At full strength, the taste can be perceived as intense and spicy, with hints of burnt caramel and unripe stone fruits. Adding a few drops of water brings out notes of lemon zest and rounds off the tasting experience.

The finish of this whisky is long-lasting, with persistent spicy notes. As the intensity fades, tangy lemon notes emerge, while vanilla and spices remain present throughout.

This bottling is known for its precise and clean character, without significant flaws but also without standout peculiarities. It represents a classic Speyside profile with distinct ex-bourbon influences. Due to the high alcohol content, adding water is recommended to unlock the underlying flavor nuances and soften the ethanol bite.
