Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

very expressive, starting quite phenolic and sort of resinous. Lots happening in there! Notes of spearmint, seawater and smoked tea with also quite some butter caramel and roasted nuts. Something metallic in the background (old bottle effect) as well as a little tar, old books and beeswax. Very complex for a mundane 10 yo OB, what a great surprise

restaurant Palate

ah yes, it’s very oomphy, starting with quite some salt (funny, that happens at the end usually) and lots of roasted nuts together with again these resinous and waxy notes. Goes on with earl grey tea, dried herbs (parsley, rosemary, sage etc.), mocha, a little bitter chocolate. It’s probably less bold on the palate and maybe a little less interesting but the finish is rather long, maybe a tad drying now but very coffeeish, with also notes of slightly burnt bread crust. Very good, even if another old Tamdhu 10 yo (late 1980’s) was a little creamier and more full-bodied. 88 points for this one. Tamdhu 15 yo (43%, OB for Germany, ceramic, 1980’s)
