Craftsmanship
Tomintoul introduced this peated expression to offer a more subtle style of smoke within the Speyside tradition. The whisky is produced from select batches of peated and unpeated malted barley, giving it a balanced character. After distillation, it is matured in ex bourbon casks that contribute soft vanilla and gentle oak notes while preserving the delicate peat profile.
Best Enjoyed
Enjoy it neat or with a splash of water to open the grain and smoke harmony. Its approachable profile makes it well suited for those exploring peated whisky for the first time, as well as fans seeking a softer take on smoke. It also pairs beautifully with smoked meats, aged cheeses, or quiet evening moments.
Tomintoul The Gentle Dram Peated delivers a smooth and welcoming taste of Speyside smoke, offering refined character and understated richness on Royal Batch.
