Tamdhu
announce the 2nd limited release of
their big sherried first fill European
Oak Oloroso Sherry Cask matured Cigar
Malt.
 Tamdhu
Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky has
announced the second release of their
big sherried Cigar Malt, Tamdhu Cigar
Malt II which once again celebrates an
age-old pairing of whisky and cigars,
although smoking a cigar alongside the
whisky is optional.
Tamdhu Cigar Malt II is very much
characterised by Tamdhu's dedication to
full maturation in the finest first fill
European Oak Oloroso Sherry Casks.
These casks, like each leaf in a cigar,
contribute to the Cigar Malt's
distinctive natural colour and robust
flavour - complementing the profile of
the world’s best cigars.
Bottled unchillfiltered and at 53.8%
ABV, the whisky is said to mimic the
spice, aroma, and mouthfeel of aged
tobacco leaves, resulting in a richness
of texture and strength of flavour.
Described as having a balanced, creamy
nose giving way to crystallised ginger,
rich golden syrup, and hints of sherry
oak. Winter fruits soaked in sherry
complement the opulent, thick mouthfeel,
which is followed by a rich malt loaf
and vanilla cream. A long, lingering,
and rewarding finish brings an
unmistakable hint of sherry, with
honeyed apricots and toasted nuts.
Sandy McIntyre, Tamdhu Distillery
Manager, said: "After the success of our
debut Cigar Malt, we are delighted to
announce the second expression in the
series. This latest release honours the
age-old cigar and whisky pairing, and
boasts a robust flavour profile designed
to stand up to the finest cigars and
complement their rich aroma. It’s the
perfect representation of our dedication
to full-term sherry cask maturation.”
Tamdhu Cigar Malt No II has a RRP of
£195.99 and will be
available from specialist online whisky
shops such
as
The Whisky Exchange,
The Whisky Shop,
Hard To Find Whisky
and
Master of
Malt
