The Speyside includes the catchment area of the River Spey with its tributaries. It is not the largest whisky region in terms of area, but with its 50 or so active distilleries, Speyside produces around 50% of all Scotch whisky. For that reason, the Speyside is formally regarded as a separate whiskyregio, although it is in the Highlands. A general characteristic of Speyside whisky could be: not smoky, fruity, flowers.
A good introduction to the single malt whisky from Speyside distillery Tamnavulin, this Double Cask edition. Certainly also considering the price. The whisky matured in bourbon casks and was finished in sherry casks. At 40% no powerhouse, but a light dram
Established in the last century as a supplier to the blended whisky industry, Speyside distillery Tamnavulin has already released quite a few single malt whisky bottlings. In early 2020, Tamnavulin released another batch in their Sherry Cask Edition. 40%
The Tamnavulin distillery was established in 1966 to supply single malt whisky for blends such as Whyte & Mackay. Since 1988, Tamnavulin has also been releasing distillery bottlings. Like this one. A single malt finished in red wine casks. (40%, 1 Ltr)
The bottlings in Diageo's Rare Malts Selection consistently scored well. This includes this bottling of a Teaninich single malt whisky that was released in 1997. The spirit for this whisky was distilled in 1973: a real 'old skool' Teaninich! (57.1% ABV)
Tomintoul whisky has a light profile. Almost the entire production is for the blends, but 2% is bottled as single malt. Like this 10 year old. With its floral, fresh-fruity notes and hints of wood, honey and vanilla a nice 'all day dram'.
Because most of Tomintoul’s production goes to the blends, the whisky matures mainly in bourbon casks. But in this 16-year-old malt you'll find, in addition to some smoke, sherry influences like red fruit, nuts and marzipan. A nice dram for a nice price.
This 12-year-old single malt whisky from Tomintoul (also called The Gentle Dram) was released in 2021. The Speysider first matured in ex-bourbon casks and was then finished in oloroso sherry casks. A fruity, spicy dram for a nice price.
The Tomintoul Distillery started in the 1960s, and has been releasing bottlings of their single malt whisky since 1974. Third parties also market this Speysider. As Chapter 7 does here with this malt that matured for 11 years in an Amontillado cask. 52.5%
Not much is known about this Tomintoul Cigar Malt single malt whisky. It is a special distillery bottling, matured in sherry casks. But for the picture here are some notes that tasters tasted: anise, juniper, dried fruit, tobacco, mild smoke and peat.
This 'The Nailed Puppet' from the Voodoo series by Brave New Spirits is an 11 year old Tormore single malt whisky. The lightly peated Speysider matured in bourbon casks. This resulted in a pleasantly drinkable dram for a reasonable price. (52.6%)
The German bottler Whisky-Fässle regularly manages to select very fine casks. And this bottling is a hit again. It is a 32 year old Tormore single malt whisky. The slightly peated Speyside-malt matured in a bourbon cask and was bottled at 44.1%.
As far as we can judge it, this Tormore single malt whisky has matured on a bourbon barrel. And that for 26 years, that is on the label of this Berry Bros & Rudd bottling. The Speyside malt is bottled at cask strength: 44.5%.
Van Wees bottlings are known for their reasonable prices. And that also applies to this bottling of a single malt whisky from an unnamed distillery (shhh, it is Macallan). The malt matured for 14 years in refill Oloroso sherry casks and is bottled at 46%.
