I already wrote about Tamdhu 12, as I got it from Advent Calendar last year, and I think it was great for its price. Now I got myself a taster of Tamdhu 12, 15 and 18. I still stand that Tamdhu 12 is great. But Tamdhu 15 is even better. Which is not always the case, mind you.
It is sweet, smooth, and leaves nice warmth not only in the throat, but also in the belly. With some liteheadiness on top.
Is it worth twice the price of Tamdhu 12? For the moment I think yes.
20th whiskey in the calendar was Bunnahabhain 12, which I know pretty well, it’s a very solid Scotch whiskey, but not one of my favorites.
So we jump straight to Tamdhu 12 Years Old. It is light and smooth to the point I would think it’s a blend, with a very sweet fruity taste. One of the more pleasant whiskeys from the calendar. I had to check that it is matured in Oloroso Sherry casks, because the colour is quite light. At 45GBP, it’s a bargain. Would definitely like to try the 15 years or Cask Strength of this one.
