Description
Apart from an official release 50 year old in 2017, very few Tamdhus have been marketed at any great age, so this indie edition is something of a novelty. Largely reserved for blending, the scarcity is also due to the distillery changing hands and being mothballed on multiple occasions – as recently as 2009. Edrington Group finally sold the distillery to Ian Mcleod Distillers and production resumed in 2012 with a new range of core expressions hitting the market. This bottling stems from before the distillery’s ‘modern period’ during which there was (arguably) a bit less emphasis on sherry maturation. To enrich this charismatic Speysider, Murray McDavid have finished it in a small 110 litre x-bourbon cask from Koval Distillery in Chicago, intensifying the flavours of fruit salad, oak spice and orange while creaming up the mouthfeel.
