Tullibardine 1993 Sansibar 70cl 52.5%

Description

The Clans label was a new series from Sansibar, first released in 2017. The first batch also contained a Tullibardine 1993. We’ll compare it to a very similar whisky, just released by Maltbarn. Nose: soaked wholemeal bread crusts up front. Very malty, with hints of All-Bran wheat flakes and hay. Light whiffs of beurre noisette. A slight dustiness of old books and golden apples as well. Mouth: sweeter than expected, but with a similar dustiness and maltiness. Bread again, hints of rye. Leafy notes, sage. After a while also hints of oranges. Finish: medium long, still a bit neutral (spirit-driven). Nutmeg and bread
