I mean sure, if you want the status symbol of an old single malt to show off to your friends whilst still having an easy drinking, sessionable whisky, Tomintoul fits the bill. I suspect, however, that many consumers nowadays would prefer something a little more characterful, a little more intense and they wouldn’t particularly care if that meant buying a much younger whisky.

With Water: A few drops of water brings more of that white peach to the front, along with green tea. Alas, it seems to drown out the other notes. The water also makes the palate thinner and even more watery, perhaps even bland. If you use water, use it sparingly. Hinds, Alice (8 March 2022). "Croft conversion: Why experts say encouraging a new generation into farming will be vital". The Sunday Post . Retrieved 27 November 2023. I’ve previously reviewed the Tomintoul 10-year-old here, the Peaty Tang here and Old Ballantruan here. Taste: A par for the course 40% arrival – aiming purely to be ‘smooth’ and not necessarily to show off the distinctive character of the spirit itself.

Unlike Fochabers, (another village the Duke built), Tomintoul was forgotten and neglected.
