Decadent Drams Tobermory 2008 17 Year Old

Refill wood, west coast air, 17 years of silence. This 2008 Tobermory has done everything the slow way, bottled at 54.9%, with salted lemon, sea herbs, wax polish and just enough funk to keep things interesting. Understated until it isn’t. The kind of malt that unpacks itself sideways: you get fruit, then oil, then brine, then smoke, then regret that you didn’t buy two. If you’ve ever eaten driftwood and called it terroir, this one’s for you.
