Tobermory 1995 Claxton's

The second expression in a little trio of Claxton's whiskies that I reviewed is a 20 years old Tobermory.
This spirit was distilled on 26.4.1995 and was matured in a refill hogshead. It is bottled at 48%.

Nose: It starts dry with notes of lemon and green Apples. A touch of seawater and a lot of malty aromas. There are also some grainy notes like oats and muesli. The alcohol is a bit stingy but not in an unpleasant way.
