Tullibardine 228 Burgundy Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Tullibardine 228 is finished in red Burgundy casks from Chateau de Chassagne Montrachet, the home of Maison Michel Picard, which also owns Tullibardine distillery.

Tasting note: Fairly low-key aromas with a pleasing mingling of tea biscuits and dried red berry notes... hints of sulphur too... The highlight is the juicy finish: A succulent burst of wood, wine and whisky, brisk through the aftertaste and relatively straightforward, but still manages to keep you entertained. 43% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... The nose features charred oak, vanilla, milk chocolate-covered Turkish Delight, and mild, sweet chili. Sweet and spicy on the nutty palate, with eating apples, cranberries, and a silky texture. Allspice and damsons in the lengthy finish.

...No shortage of bitter chocolate. Flawed, but a wow for those looking for a mega dry malt.
