Tamdhu 10 Year Old is the flagship expression from the Tamdhu distillery, relaunched in this new incarnation in 2013 after a period of closure. The distillery sources some of the rarest and most expensive casks, sherry casks from Jerez in Spain, and ships them whole to Speyside to mature their spirit in. A warm amber colour, there are prominent aromas of sherry complimented by vanilla, citrus peels and warming spices. On the palate is a burst of fruit and spice flavours with underlying sweet toffee and cocoa. The fruity notes linger on into the finish, fading to leave behind a mere wisp of peat smoke. The bottle comes presented in a limited edition lantern style gift tin. Limited edition presentation stocks, while stocks last. |
