Tamdhu
announces that its Tamdhu European
Sherry Oak Single Cask No. 6192 limited
edition whisky which was exclusively
available from Edinburgh airport will
now be available from the Tamdhu
website.
Due to the still ongoing global
travel disruption caused by the Covid-19
pandemic whisky fans have been unable to
access travel retail exclusive bottlings
like they once could.
Tamdhu distillery in Speyside which is
known for the sherried single malt it
produces recognises that the demand is
still there from whisky fans and have
announced that they have now made their
award-winning Tamdhu Edinburgh Airport
European Sherry Oak Single Cask No. 6192
limited edition whisky available to buy
online via their Tamdhu website.
The distillery recognises the increase
in the domestic market consumer demand
following global travel disruptions and
have decided to make the remaining
bottles of its Tamdhu Edinburgh Airport
European Sherry Oak Single Cask
bottles available for online purchase,
giving non-travellers, which is just
about everyone now, and those who have
been affected by rescheduled or
cancelled flights, an opportunity to
sample the oldest single cask released
by the Tamdhu Distillery to date.
Distilled on the 25th November 2002 and
bottled in February 2019, this 16 year
old first-fill Oloroso sherry single
cask which produce 597 bottles in total was chosen unanimously from a
shortlist of eight casks by key members
of the Dufry and Edinburgh Airport teams
during a visit to the Tamdhu distillery.
The news comes after the expression was
crowned as ‘Category Winner’ in the 13
to 20 Years’ Single Cask, Single Malt
Scotch category at the World Whiskies
Awards 2020.
Sandy McIntyre, Tamdhu Distillery
Manager, said: "Naturally we were
delighted when this Single Cask Tamdhu
expression won in its category at the
prestigious World Whiskies Awards.
"We’re proud now to bring the critically
acclaimed liquid to a wider audience,
allowing more Tamdhu fans the
opportunity to taste this wonderful dram
and appreciate the craft of the entire
team here at the distillery."
Tamdhu Edinburgh Airport Single Cask, a
limited release of 597 bottles, is
presented in a 70c bottle, bottled at
57.1% ABV, is non chill-filtered and
naturally coloured and is described by
Tamdhu as being
rich and luxurious on the nose, with
notes of buttered fruit cake and orange
zest. The palate bursts with rich sherry
flavours, dried apricot and a note of
cinnamon. This culminates with a warming
vanilla and fresh oak finish.
You may no longer need a passport to get
hold of a bottle of the Tamdhu 2002
Vintage single cask bottling but you
will have to dig deep into your pockets
if you want to taste it as it has a £279
price tag. As I said you can now
find it available from the Tamdhu
website.
If you want to explore the current
Tamdhu whisky range you will find it available from specialist online whisky
retailers such as
The Whisky Exchange,
The Whisky Shop and
Master of Malt

Producer's Tasting Notes:
Nose: Rich and luxurious on the
nose with buttered warm fruit cake and
custard, balanced beautifully with the
freshness of strawberries and orange
zest.
Taste: Enjoy a soft yet thick
mouthful, bursting with rich sherried
flavour, the sweetness of dried apricot
and raisins with just a hint of
cinnamon.
Finish: The finish is beautifully
rich with the essence of concentrated
dried fruit, a warming trace of vanilla
and a wisp of fresh oak.
