{"product_id":"alexander-murray-tomintoul-15-year-old-1999","title":"Alexander Murray Tomintoul 15 Year Old 1999","description":"\u003cp\u003eNew-school: built in 1965 to produce whisky for blending, like many during that era, Tomintoul lies within the Glenlivet estate in the Speyside region. Sometimes seen under its older ‘Tomintoul-Glenlivet’ guise, like a handful of nearby ‘piggy-backers’ it adopted the popular ‘Glenlivet’ name, then later reverted. Its character is entirely different to The Glenlivet. A distillery that labels itself as a ‘gentle dram’, Tomintoul arguable makes an authentic claim. Typically you can expect a soft delivery from all that they bottle, most likely to create whisky that is very approachable, we have to guess. If you think what is required to describe a whisky as ‘smooth’ then you’re probably not too far away from the delivery of Tomintoul. In saying that, straight from the cask Tomintoul has a definite bite about it, displaying all of the barley sugar and raisin characteristics that contribute to its gentle perception, yet also showing a thick, waxy quality that adds a layer of oomph. Be careful of the heavily-peated variant sometimes produced at the distillery – Ballantruan – for it is far from gentle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alexander Murray","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43742820204777,"sku":"Alexander-Murray-Tomintoul-15-Year-Old","price":94.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bourbonhuntusa.com\/products\/alexander-murray-tomintoul-15-year-old-1999","provider":"Bourbon Hunt USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
