Distillery: Tamdhu Distillery

This edition is reminiscent of the classic Tamdhu style, with plentiful sherry notes balanced by a resinous quality throughout. It was aged for 28 years before being bottled. The label is a reference to the fact that Tamdhu is the only distillery that continues to use a saladin box to malt its barley, featuring a shadow-boxing Prince Saladin sporting a mighty fine beard. Batch 1 is a release of 270 bottles. That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles single malts, single grains and bourbons from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blended malts and blends. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels.

That Boutique-y Whisky Company Tamdhu 28 Year Old Batch #1 Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 500ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Sultanas, apricot jam and pineapple chunks break through dusty malt and apple butter. Polished oak and vanilla custard simmer over almond croissants, raw cinnamon and a little lemon zest. Crisp barley and sugary cereal add a light, almost whimsical edge.

Palate: Subtly powerful, a deep sherried flavour brings dried figs, mulling spices and woody tannins. Rich licks of treacle toffee lift dry fruitcake, while oily walnuts and polished oak add sublime texture. The tart sharpness of green apple lingers in a rancio element.

Finish: A consistent, bitter grapefruit peel note lingers among some melted almond butter.

Distillery Information

Let’s start at the beginning. But the beginning isn’t at the distillery on Speyside where you might expect. The Tamdhu story starts under the warming Spanish sun. In 1898 our founders secured their first precious shipment of sherry casks from the finest bodegas in Spain. Now over 100 years later, Tamdhu matures its whisky exclusively in the finest Oloroso sherry casks. Although the casks are exceptionally rare and expensive, we wouldn’t change our methods, as we think it’s the only way to create the very best single malt whisky.
