Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
starts on a rather heavy peatiness, somewhat in the Ardmore genre, together with quite some coal smoke, burnt matches, heather, linseed oil and argan oil. No need to say this is superb, as most old Tamdhus are. Also hints of olive oil and shoe polish. What’s interesting is that the peat was ‘encapsulated’ in the bottle, whereas Tamdhus from the same period that matured for a long time in their cask may well have lost it
restaurant Palate
ho-ho, this is phenolic! Peat, wax, chlorophyll toothpaste, heavy liquorice, caramel, orange blossom water, pepper... This is big whisky! Gets very gingery after that, almost biting. Hard to imagine what this one would be at cask strength
timer Finish
extremely long, extremely peppery, very bitter (nicely so) and slightly prickly. Very unusual... Actually, I wouldn’t say this is very good as such but interesting it is
