Суммаризация отзывов
Мягкий, лёгкий и очень питкий спейсайд с фруктово-цветочным носом и древесно-пряным финишем; нередко описывается как приятный, но быстро забывающийся.
развернуть подробно
В отзывах Tomintoul 16-year-old чаще всего описывают как очень мягкий и лёгкий виски. В носу отмечают фруктовые и цветочные ноты — цитрусы, апельсин, яблоки, манго, а также ваниль, карамель, мёд, зерновые и ореховые оттенки (миндаль), иногда травянистые и слегка землистые тона. Вкус характеризуют как шелковистый, маслянистый и сбалансированный, с зерновой нотой, лёгкой сладостью фруктов, дубовой горечью, какао и шоколадом; часть отзывов упоминает лёгкую пряность или перечную остроту. Финиш в основном описывают как средний по длине, с дубом, какао, цитрусами и лёгкой горечью, иногда с металлическим или горьковатым оттенком; добавление воды делает его мягче и слаще.
Общий тон отзывов — «приятный, но не выдающийся»: несколько текстов прямо называют его мягким, лёгким для питья и «джентльменским», другие — плоским, скучным, безликим и быстро забывающимся, с водянистой текстурой и слишком древесным финишем. Отдельные отзывы отмечают, что он воспринимается моложе своих 16 лет, а также сомнительное соотношение цены и впечатления. Встречаются и более тёплые оценки, где его называют элегантным, хорошо округлённым и гармоничным в носу и на вкусе.

Very soft. Just lacking a little grip.

Nose: mango, citrus fruits, almonds, a little vanilla Taste: Citrus fruits very balanced Finish: rather short, bitter metal remains. Very elegant whisky. Would be absolutely great, if not there was the bad finish. But still a very good whisky.

Classic Speysider with a fruity, floral nose, a watery mouthfeel and a very woody finish. Rather interchangeable Note 3

The "Gentle Dram," it says on the bottle’s label, and it certainly is one of the gentler whiskies in Speyside. It’s a fragrant whisky too with a firm malty foundation, fruit gum drops and caramel. Subtle notes of almond and anise helped keep my interest, as did its soft, subtle wood spice finish. Very easy to drink too!
The nose is petty grim but the palate is ok and you may enjoy it if the nose does not put you off?

Tomintoul 16. Short review March 2019. Soft fruits, very easy, ever so slightly bready, some bread crust roughness and a hint of smoke, spiced finish ... not bad. Only costs like £37 for a 16 year old whisky, which is not what the rest of the market is doing! 3.4/81

Slightly sprightly and too flowery for me.
A kind of silky body.

nose: sweet, grains, musk, hints of fruit taste: light wood, alcohol, mild sweetness of fruits, light syrup finish: medium, bitter with burst of sweet fruitiness, peach/lychee at the back with water: less musk, more fruits in nose. sweeter but lighter taste, weaker finish NOTE: -2 points for the price, the 16 years old price doesn't deliver the better experience i was expecting, get a younger variant instead (original score of 81)
[June, 2003] I had this dram during a FoSM club tasting. In my old rating system (ten scales that translate into WB points: 50 - 66 - 75 - 80 - 82,5 - 85 - 87,5 - 90 - 92,5 - 95) I scored it 80. Please see detailed tasting note below.

Good, but a bit forgetful.
A pleasant whisky ... With a few drops of water, it becomes milder and sweeter in the finish ...

The body is of a medium texture. The arrival on the palate is gentle but gets a little hot (peppery) after that. Water does not change a lot.
Golden color. Quite oily structure.

Blind tasting. Guessed age: 8 years Very interesting experience indeed. I tasted this Whisky some month age (not blind) and gave it 77 points, which clearly contradicts my blind review. I guess in my earlier review I was put off by the fact that this whisky tastes much younger than 16 years. Don't get me wrong, it's an excellent whisky (as this blind review proves), but obviously I have very different expectations for a 16 year old whisky.

A flat, boring whisky.

In all respects an unspectacular whisky without corners or edges, which does not attract attention and is just as fast out of memory as it sounds.
N- Milky honey, copper, estery lemon and mandarin orange. After burnt cold log with faintest touch of earthy smokes. P- Fresh and frizzy cherry, milky chocolate and vanilla coming thru with crisp dew. Nutty and good weight on palate. Pleasant and well rounded. F- Medium length, crisp and clean. Burst of sweet and citric fruits. Leave with a kiss of tart and spicy. — at The Whisky Bar, Kuala Lumpur.

A Pleasant enough dram - though I prefer the 14 yo (ucf) which is streets better
Mild, fruity and sweet. There is hardly anything more to say. Delicious.

Tomintoul 16 years old, original bottling, 40% alc. Maturation: bourbon and sherry casks Region: Speyside, Scotland Nose: Vividly fresh, citrus aromas, oranges and pale immature apples. Behind it grassy notes, hay meadow, moss. But also earthy and meaty flavors - somehow I have associations of goulash with neat peppers. Palate: Silky and light, strong grain note, slightly bitter. Similar to a grain. Then slightly fruity, orange and some grapefruit. The earthy aromas of the nose are more spicy. Finish: Long and pretty wild here. Strawberries and oranges, a slight sherry sweetness and mild almond marzipan. Conclusion: nose and palate are in perfect harmony. The departure on the other hand almost breaks out of the previous profile and I like it quite well. 83/100 points (tasted 2014, approx. 50 €)
Solid dram, nothing special anyway. Pleasant, sweet nose.

I find this goes downhill from the nose on, so that's a little disappointing. However, there's not really any specific bad quality to this so I can't fault it too much. But the problem is; there's also little character, something that will make you remember this. Tomintoul 16 will be a good whisky for the early starters, it's very drinkable. But therefor, also quickly forgotten. "The Gentle Dram" indeed, seems like good guys do finish last after all..
Nose yeast
More balanced and more assertive than the 10-year old
