Tullibardine 26 Year Old 1989 WhiskyBroker

WhiskyBroker is one of the few independent bottlers that keeps offering fairly old casks at attractive prices. This Tullibardine 1986 is more than a quarter century old and was released in 2015 for less than 100 EUR. Where can you find such deals these days?

The nose is very fresh. It is spring in the glass. Soft and oily with all kinds...
