Tamdhu \u003cem\u003eonly\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003efills Sherry casks\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat’s right. Every single drop of Tamdhu’s delicious, fruity spirit has gone into a Sherry cask. And when it comes to actually putting their whiskies together, the team rely on their exceptional understanding of the nuances and subtle differences between first-fill European and American oak Sherry casks from the different bodegas – as well as the need for the more delicate influence of refill casks – to build a complex, balanced dram.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd that’s exactly what they’ve done in putting together \u003cstrong\u003eTamdhu 2014 Vintage Sherry Matured Batch Strength, Created Exclusively for The Whisky Club\u003c\/strong\u003e. Drawn from 100% Oloroso Sherry casks, this is sherried whiskymaking at its finest. First-fill European oak leads the charge with rich spiced fruitcake, toffee and milk chocolate, balanced sublimely against caramelised vanilla, raspberry jubes and a buttery nuttiness from the American oak Oloroso, with a small parcel of refill casks providing backbone and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter tasting the batch at a range of strengths, we landed on 50.7% ABV as the perfect ABV to express this single-vintage dram’s full fruity complexity, before bottling it with all natural colour and non-chill filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere’s the kicker: batch strength Tamdhu starts at $160, and that’s with no age statement.
