Tamdhu 28 Year Old - Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Tamdhu
Tasting Notes
From the nosing, this 28-year-old Tamdhu whisky tantalizes with a luscious medley of sultanas, apricot jam, and pineapple chunks that burst forth amidst dusty malt and apple butter. An elegant interplay of polished oak and vanilla custard simmers over almond croissants, while raw cinnamon and a zesty hint of lemon add a sprightly touch. The crisp barley and sugary cereal notes lend a whimsical edge to the aroma. On the palate, a subtly powerful, deeply sherried flavor unfurls dried figs, mulling spices, and woody tannins. Rich treacle toffee lifts the dry fruitcake notes, while oily walnuts and polished oak contribute a sublime texture. A tangy green apple tartness lingers with a rancio element. The finish sees a consistent, bitter grapefruit peel note lingering among melted almond butter, creating a harmonious finale to this exceptional 28-year-old Tamdhu expression.
