Tamdhu's Quercus Alba Distinction - Release 2 is a exquisite Speyside single malt scotch that showcases the distinct flavors imparted by maturation in first-fill American oak sherry casks. As you uncork the bottle, the nose greets you with a delightful aroma reminiscent of creamy oatcakes, complemented by the warmth of oaky vanilla spice and a zesty twist of waxy orange peel. On the palate, the sherry character shines through, unveiling notes of cocoa nibs, a tantalizing berry compote, and drizzles of rich caramel. The finish lingers with the chewy sweetness of dates, leaving a touch of vanilla to savor. This release offers whisky enthusiasts a unique opportunity to compare the nuances of American oak against its European counterpart, showcasing Tamdhu's expertise in sherry maturation and their commitment to crafting exceptional Speyside single malts.
