Another quite light dram, of similar strength and also ex-Bourbon cask matured. remarkably the 5 years difference between this and the last were really not apparent. 83/100
Glencadam 15 Years Old (46%, OB, 2020)
The Singleton of Dufftown 15 Years Old (40%, OB, 2020)
Much more balanced that the Trinité but I still found this one a little bland. I love the 12, despite it’s super-easy drinking it is full of subtleties and nuances of flavour that works really well. Sadly I’m just not finding that here. 84/100
Tomintoul 15 Years Old 2005 Amontillado Finish (55.8%, LOTG, Cask #19A, 251 Bottles, 2020)
Tomintoul 15 Years Old 2005 Amontillado Finish Whisky Review: A much more delicate dram than the Dailuaine, more typically speyside and slightly more typically sherried here also. Leather and sun-dried fruits combine with plenty of orange zest and hazelnut. 88/100
Knockando 15 Years Old 1999 (43%, OB, 2014)
Knockando 15 Years Old 1999 Whisky Review: Much more sherried than the 1997 vintage, in texture, colour and flavour. A completely different beast, still with plenty of nutty and floral notes but superior overall. 85/100
Knockando 15 Years Old 1997 (43%, OB, 2012)
Knockando 15 Years Old 1997 Whisky Review: Malty and floral, spicy and nutty, coffee, etc, this has it all but is perhaps a little too spiced for me. 82/100
Longrow 15 Years Old 2001 (51.9%, OB, Cage, 1st Fill Sherry Butt, 1 Bottle, 2017)
Longrow 15 Years Old 2001 Whisky Review: A touch oily and closed and quite creamy in texture. Straight forward sherry and peat but with further sampling what at first seems simple is really quite accomplished, a single cask that is on par with a married standard expression. 89/100
Tomatin 15 Years Old 2003 Moscatel (46%, OB, 6000 Bottles, 2018)
Tomatin 15 Years Old 2003 Moscatel whisky review: Flavourful and rich, balanced sweetness and oak and some lovely bright fruits in here. Tomatin’s spirit is quite delicate and this enhancement complements it well. 86/100
Inchmurrin 15 Years Old 1996 Signatory Vintage (43%, Signatory, Refill Butts #24+25, 1409 Bottles, 2012)
Inchmurrin 15 Years Old 1996 Signatory Vintage Cask 24+25 whisky review: Very nice, not too challenging but very little peat influence I could detect. 83/100
Springbank 15 Years Old 2002 (47.2%, OB, Cage, F Sherry HH, 1 Bottle, 2017)
Springbank 15 Years Old 2002 First fill Sherry Hogshead Whisky Review: A classic single cask expression that displays many of the qualities the official Springbank 15 year old is built on, a delight to sample this one. 87/100
Bain’s 15 Years Old Founders Collection (52.5%, OB, 3600 Bottles 2019)
Bain’s 15 Years Old Founders Collection Whisky Review: A touch spicy, unsurprising due to the hot climate and cask activity in South Africa, and light-bodied and slightly spirity in character driven by the core grain spirit, though these are small prices to pay in what tastes and feels a lot older than its 15 years. Huge cask maturation influence in here would convince you this is twice its age! 87/100
