Advent Calendar

13th is Noble Rebel Smoke Symphony. I guessed 40GBP and Scotland, because who else smokes whiskey? It’s 37GBP and indeed from Scotland. Taste is not bad, not fantastic. But for 46% ABV has plenty of warmth in the throat.

14th is Milk&Honey Classic from Israel. I have their Milk&Honey Elements, which is the sherried whiskey, which I think is great value for money. And I might even reviewed the Classic once already, as it’s sold in Ben Gurion. This one is very sharp, both on the nose and palate. Still, if I was told it’s a 10 years old Speyside, I would believe it. It has plenty of sweetness to it, and a lot of warmth for 46%, but not something I would personally buy.

Tamdhu 15 Years Old

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.
