Tamdhu 18 Year Old | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Spiced orange leads, with zesty lemon peels, sweet baking spices, and heaps of dried, sherry-soaked fruit.

Palate: The dried fruit progresses to full-on fruit cake, with wafts of cinnamon, earthen vanilla pod, and a crisp crunch of red apple.

Finish: Sweet, nutty oak, roasted malt, and yet more fragrant, spiced baked goods finish up with lingering notes of boozy sultanas and cracked peppercorns.

Distillery Information

it was in 1863 that the Strathspey railway first graced Speyside’s locality. A dependable means of travel was, at last, brought to the area and several distilleries were built as a result. Tamdhu was one of them; founded in 1896 by a group of whisky blenders, including William Grant and Sons among others, and designed by the famed, prolific Speyside distillery architect, Charles Doig of Elgin. The distillery is of good size; her six stills have a total capacity of four million litres annually, though at present Tamdhu runs at three quarters of this. Tamdhu installed a substantial Saladin box malting system in 1950. One of but a handful of distilleries with onsite maltings and the only one still using a Saladin box, Tamdhu produces all of its own malt as well as enough to supply other distilleries in the Edrington group, notably the Glenrothes distillery. Tamdhu lies on the banks of the mighty River Spey, not far from Knockando. The Knockando distillery's ancient railway station has since been converted into the Tamdhu visitor centre.
