Tamnavulin Cabernet Sauvignon Edition

So here is another value scotch that comes in a variety of finishes. Nose is berry fruit roll up with some light barrel wood and pinch of spice. Its pretty low key and blend -like. Palate is red berry alongside some malt with a touch of baking spice and oak. Its not totally thin but its dieting. Finish is standard fare with notes fading slowly leaving fruity malt. This is dominated by the cab finish covering up average at best new make. Not bad but not a repurchase and I will not try the other offerings. I prefer the Glen Moray finished line to this as its more scotchy, Tamnavulin is too cask influenced ......75/100...........end of day its a $30 single malt so I nonetheless enjoyed the bottle just better options out there

Nose: Malt, oak/wood, summer berries, vanilla, warm plastic Palate: Sweet. Dusty upfront, nutty, woody, summer fruit and berries, rose/floral Finish: Medium finish. Fruit/berry jam, mild spiciness, liquorice. The aftertaste builds on the fruit compote notes and sweetness. This is a sweet and fruity dram. There’s a good amount of immediate dryness, a little spiciness and hints of rose and liquorice. There’s a lot of youthful flavour, not necessarily complex, and not completely integrated, but tasty and quaffable. Not bad at all.
