Tamdhu 50

I forbindelse med Tamdhus 120 års jubilæum, har de frigivet deres hidtil ældste aftapning.

Tamdhu har ligget på et europæisk sherry butt i 50 år og det er der kommet 100 flasker ud af og er aftappet ved fadstyker på 55,6% alc.

Leonard Russell, Managing Director af Ian Macleod Distillers udtaler: “120 years of expertise and 50 years of maturation in an extraordinary sherry oak cask  have gone into making Tamdhu 50 Year Old, and we are delighted to be able to share it with the world.

What makes this whisky really special to us is that it represents the rebirth of the distillery. There was a time, before we bought and reopened Tamdhu, when some thought it was gone forever. This cask, which may never have been released had the distillery remained closed, can be now enjoyed and savoured, and that is something we want to celebrate.    

In the spirit of celebration, we have been working with some of the UK’s top craftspeople to create a beautiful decanter, inspired by the generations of expertise which has gone into making Tamdhu.  It’s a fitting tribute to a remarkable whisky, in a very special year.”
