Tamdhu Batch Strength #1

Tamdhu Batch Strength #1

Inspired by the Diamond Jubliee of 1897, which celebrated then-Queen Victoria's 60 years on the throne, a group of Scottish merchants and whisky traders pooled together capital (roughly equivalent to 20 million in today's currency) to build the most technologically-advanced distillery the world had ever seen. After procuring land adjacent to the River Spey, the group hired Charles C. Doig, the most esteemed distillery architect and engineer of his time, to construct the industrial masterpiece. The result was Tamdhu Distillery, the most modern distillery of its era. Tamdhu Distillery survived the ups-and-downs of the 20th century until finally closing in 2011 shortly after its closing, the distillery was purchased by Ian Macleod Distillers, and is now producing whisky by the same exacting standards which earned Tamdhu Distillery its sterling reputation over the prior century. Tamdhu Batch Strength #1 is aged exclusively in sherry oak casks, most of which are first-fill, before being bottled at a punchy 117.6 proof. Unchillfiltered and natural in color, the team at Tamdhu Distillery proclaims it is the closest youll get to sampling a dram of whisky straight from a Tamdhu cask. Tamdhu Batch Strength #1 has an aroma of red berries, walnuts, green tea and cookie dough, which leads to a palate filled with notes of bananas, sherry, dried fruits and crme brle. The finish is dry and malty, accented by flavors of biscuits, honey, pecans, citrus and oak. Pick up a bottle today!
