Flemming personally selected casks from various vintages for this release, then blended them with his own distillate, which has a smoky and peaty profile. The selected whiskies were either fully matured in Oloroso sherry casks or finished in them. As the label notes, Tomintoul Cigar Malt is designated "Parejo" (Spanish for "partner"), as the creator intended to create a whisky that would be the perfect "partner" for a high-end cigar. Bottled at 43% abv, the whisky "offers a perfect balance of sweetness and spice, enhanced by a delicate smoky note," according to the author. This 16-year-old Speyside whisky, initially matured in Gonzalez Byass Oloroso sherry casks before being aged for a year in bourbon oak, is characterized by a light yet complex profile. Awarded four medals at the International Wine & Spirits Competition between 2003 and 2010, Tomintoul 12 Year Old Oloroso Sherry Single Malt is a testament to the producer's maturity, passion, knowledge, and experience in whisky production. Maturing in Spanish sherry casks, this Scotch whisky has acquired a masterful character. On the nose, it captivates with aromas of vanilla cream, almonds, and raisins. On the palate, it is smooth and elegant, with notes of fruity marmalade and honey. This exquisite whisky won a gold medal in San Francisco at the World Spirits Competition.
