  • Excerpt: The finish sticks to your tongue and grabs on for life with notes of toffee and spices, and lasts with a tingling freshness. Adding a few drops of water brings out hints of maple syrup. Excellent!

  • Excerpt: This would make a decent aperitif dram or something to sip on when lighter styles fit the bill.

  • Excerpt: With water, it’s a matter of…chocolate? Maltesers! All you want in a sherried whisky, and it won’t burn a hole in your wallet either.

  • Excerpt: Well in the style of the newish 10yo, with an unexpected un-sweet style.

  • Excerpt: Without a little tempering, Tamdhu Batch Strength is a bit too racy for easy analysis, but when brought down to a more manageable level it starts to show off more of its charms. Definitely worth a look.

  • Excerpt: I really like this profile but found the palate a bit thin and a bit too much heat throughout. Its a nice unique profile but the heat is really what keeps it from climbing higher.

House Review
  • Intro:

    This is Tamdhu released at cask strength, but without an age statement.

  • Nose:

    Caramel, toffee, very nutty sherry. There is soke fruity essence like fig and blackberry but the nutty peanut brittle is really dominant in a savory sweet way here.

  • Taste:

    Thin to medium mouthfeel - surprising given the proof. Some heat. Nutty, faintly sour grapes, toffee and caramel. Fruitier than the nose but still clearly very nutty sherry. Nice peanut brittle note here also.

  • Finish:

    Medium length with some heat. Sweet toffee.

  • Overall:

    I really like this profile but found the palate a bit thin and a bit too much heat throughout. Its a nice unique profile but the heat is really what keeps it from climbing higher.

  • Score:

    6
