Tormore 14y/o 2007 SMWS 105.35 'Genuine Italian Fake' 58.5%ABV 30ml raspberry trifleHere is a Tormore from SMWS matured in a 1st fill bourbon barrel for 14 years. SMWS notes: The nose made it immediately apparent this was a slight deviation from this distillerys usual profile. This was firmer and richer than we were used to. Lots of canvass, touches of soot, embrocation, vapour rubs, waxed parchment and mineral oils with lemon bubble gum. Reduction brought breakfast cereals dusted with icing sugar, tiramisu, greengages, dried flowers
