Sherry Cask Edition

Fragrance: Slightly sweet, cherries, fruits, slightly varnish, vanilla The taste is sweet, slightly woody and smoky, with some cherries and chocolate. The finish is quite short but pleasant, slightly spicy but leaves a pleasant sweet aftertaste on the tongue.

For me, this one is definitely more interesting than the Double Cask. Has some additional layer of sherry influence. It's easy, light and offers some more fruitiness and spices than Double Cask.

A prime case of: "Not good and not bad". It's quite drinkable, but that's it. I don't even know what to say about him. Still OK for the discount price.

disappointing, a bit generic

Nose with classic aromas of bourbon and sherry. Tasty, too, with no rough edges. Nothing to analyze deeply and long. But tasty. Exit quite short. I would have tasted it blindly. A no-brainer for 25 € and less.

Quite easy and delightful. Relaxed sherry cask driven. Red fruits and nuts and leather.

The sweetness is very complex on the nose - bright crisp fruits, caramel, honey. A little cooling menthol & oak. The sweetness is largely absent on the palate. Instead there is dry oak, followed by light lemon zest and a long tobacco finish. Overall it is one of my best value whiskies!

Not bad, but don't buy it

Color: grape juice. Aroma – dried fruits, prunes, paint. Taste – notes of sweetness and tonic. Drinkable, relaxed, simple and straightforward whisky.

Mild, aromatic, drinkable.

Very underrated for the price. Nice and rich nose. Tastes young.

Cheap whisky from the supermarket (colruyt), but I was intrigued by the specific mention of sherry barrels. As a big sherry fan, it's worth a try, I assumed. The whisky pours a fairly darkened ocer color. It even sais on the bottle it is colored. Why they still do this is a mystery to me. What's wrong with natural color ??? Scent is relatively mild. I get some vaniline, relatively agressive alcohol. Mild oak. Taste is fairly full, still rather agressive alcohol. Very recognizable sherry - which is a pleasant surprise. First up is the PX - it's sweetness, raisins, turning the whisky almost 'fleshy' in a way. Partly due to the PX, but more from what I assume is an Oloroso Cask, there's quite a bit of nuttyness as well. Not sure what the third barrel is, but I assume amontillado ? Anyway, beautifull sherry expression - exactly what I hoped for, but I didn't dare to expect. The whisky base itself seems a bit 'lost' almost , which is not as desireable, but than again, for this price I feel this is absolutely good value for money. Not recomended as a complex, couch-meditation-pickappart-whisky, but certainly nice as an afterwork 'refreshment'. Will absolutely buy again, as this might (by far) be my favorite value for money to date !

Again...outstanding value for money.

It needs airing, it becomes a nice sipper then.

consider my buying price at SGD80 im ok with it, simply sherry sweet

A pleasant, easy-drinking sherried whisky with a light, fruity character and a nice underlying richness from the chocolate and fudge notes. Smooth and approachable, but still interesting enough for a more experienced whisky drinker. At around £23 on sale, it represents excellent value for money and is something I could see appealing equally to a newcomer or a seasoned whisky drinker. At that price, it’s a bit of a steal.

A cheap sherry whisky with 84 points rating in WB (as of 02/27/2020)? Unfortunately, it is not this one. However, there is a drinkable whisky with a noticeable sherry influence for around 23 €.

Weak, watery

Flat but strong

Chestnut sherry in color oil movement in the glass thick and slow tears

https://whiskylovingpianist.wordpress.com/2020/03/27/malt-n-copper-so-were-back/ Tamnavulin’s only official release – a NAS malt typically priced at around £32 in the UK, yet only €23 in Germany. Du glückspilz! N: Tropical/detergent-y fruitiness becoming huskier with oily barley juice later on. T: Light yet sharp/edgy and slightly anaemic to begin with. But wait! Soon we’ve creamy marzipan, white chocolate and [more] husky now sweet barley syrup. F: That sweetness on the turn becomes more crystallised and confectionery towards the tail. Concludes with a funny sweet metallic/industrial creaminess. C: Not too shabby. It’s easy to imagine the combination of price & curiosity will shift stocks. Hard to draw useful comparisons with the all-together-different Ben Bracken, aside from the 28yo shines brighter.

Simple, straightforward, entry-level sherry whisky. For those with a sweet tooth.

Very soft sherry whisky

soft, cherry, spice. good one but side by side i preffer the double cask. for the money deffinetly a must try

Good value for money, maybe? But not a good value for your liver.

Mooie geur en volle smaak.

It is one of my first whiskies I've ever bought, perhaps the first sherry matured one. After two years, I still think it's a very underrated whisky and a great bang for the buck.

Aroma: Dried fruits, dried plum, red apples, lemon peel, honey, vanilla, caramel, chocolate notes, chocolate-covered raisins Taste: In line with the aroma, dried fruits, plum, apples, plenty of honey, chocolate, fairly short finish, honey-chocolatey, with accents of dried plum, slightly spicy Overall Impression: A very basic sherry-matured whisky, the aroma and taste are solid, however the finish is clearly disappointing, the price is definitely a plus

Where do you find a good entry level malt for €20? Look no further: this Tamnavulin punches above its weight. Pleasantly surprised - good to see that a perfectly decent malt can be had for a very good price. Others should take note.

Fruity, easy drink any time. Good whisky for a Beginner.

My first reaction was "pretty boring" but at the end of the glass he won me over. This is a really nice, simple whisky that makes a lot of noise at the price level of an ordinary supermarket whisky: ideal as a no-frills whisky enjoyment for beginners, as a light after-work whisky or at the start of a tasting with heavier sherry monsters. It gets Christmassy on the nose: gingerbread spice and orange dominate. A strong sweetness of brown sugar hits the mouth, while the spices reappear in the background, flanked by raisins and a hint of orange. The mouthfeel is unexpectedly creamy. The finish is very short and doesn't make its own mark. But I can forgive that for such a simple-minded candidate.

It has good potential, but the taste is a bit too shallow for me, which is where the 40% alcohol content comes in. Still, it's a very drinkable entry-level whisky, although you do have to make some compromises. It's definitely good value for money, though.

Aroma：Moderate；Palate：81/100; Aftertaste：Medium.

Very light, not bad but no depth to the flavors.

sherry ok, unfortunately no complexity and a nice finish is missing.

chocolate, caramel. very nice. smooth on the way down.

Considering the price/performance ratio, the Tamnavulin Sherry Cask offers an outstanding indulgent aroma and - hand on heart - the Sherry Cask finishes of some renowned and much more expensive distilleries are sometimes only a hair better. For me, the Tamnavulin Sherry Cask Finish is a delicious, drinkable everyday whisky, with a sherry note that is sufficiently good but not overwhelming. A delicious snack even for small budgets.

A pleasant sherry whisky. Sherry is present on the nose and tongue. Reasonably priced. Worth a try.

Matured in American Oak and finished in three different Sherry casks

I guess I am too used to good sherry whisky by now. I don't find it interesting, the finish really hinders it. From 69 to 64.

50+3+9+9+4

Sweet and fruity, a touch of sherry - a flat, simple Speyside

Good in both taste and aroma, but a bit bland, no real character. Quite ok for the price but no more than that

хереснные ноты

Bats well above it's price point. Great nose but initially a little disappointing on the palet. However, put it over ice or with a little chilled water and the sherry noted come to life. If you can pick it up for below £25 then definitely give it a go.

Surprisingly great malt with excellent PLV

Like his brother, the DC, the nose and taste are amazing given the price. Reasonably complex, no weird notes, balanced, interesting. Obviously sherried. Thin and watery, but i didn't expect anything else for the price. And, like his bro, it has a massive problem: the aftertaste. Super weird, bitter, chemical, artificial, dirty and burned in a bad way. Not completely awful, but pretty bad. And it most probably comes from the liquid itself. As far as I know, they might be running those stills at full capacity, which is not making any favors to the final product, despite the fact the casks they are using are punching above their weight. It's just a complete waste of casks, in my opinion. I envy people that can't find any finish, or that find it short, so lucky lol. If it had none, this whisky would be permanently added to my collection. But i can only honestly enjoy this for 5 minutes before the aftertaste settles in. After that, there are just regrets. I'm very surprised almost nobody seems to care about it. It might be just me. Anyway, I find it pleasant overall despite the appalling finish. Beginners seem to really appreciate it, the only reason I still have the bottle.

Very soft, nice for novice whisky drinkers. But exciting, nah. Definitely okay for the price.

Fruit basket. Chill-filtered. Coloured. Matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks. Finished in three different type ex-sherry casks. Thick slowly forming legs. Mid-size slow secondary legs. Cask driven. Very good value for the price.

Its a very young Speyside malt with some sherry influences, plain and simple. very rudimentary and straight forward, its no adventure, but good for the price.

A good bang for your buck whisky that doesn't pretend to be anything fancier than it is. Very enjoyable, smooth and mellow.

Insane PLV. My absolute sherry favorite in this price range.

Light, sweet, fruity, easy and cheap. If you need something simple to share with friends at the cottage, this is a good one. Perfect for a party

Not bad, but not good either. If in doubt, I would choose it over a generic modern blend.

sugar

surprisingly appealing on the nose; if you like a sherry-tinged whisky that is not dominated by sherry, this is the right place and for the price (around € 25) you can't beat it, even if the taste / finish is a bit dry and short. [85 - 81 = delicious --- get a second bottle if price is within the range]

A young whisky with no claim to genius. Very good taste and aroma and just a disastrous aftertaste. 21 21 19 19
