Tamdhu Cigar Malt is a limited edition Speyside single malt Scotch whisky produced at the Tamdhu Distillery in Knockando, Scotland, owned by Ian Macleod Distillers. It is matured exclusively in hand-selected first-fill European oak Oloroso sherry casks chosen for their robust character, and bottled un-chill filtered at 53.8% ABV. Retail pricing typically falls around $280-$320.
A sherried whisky with a cigar box edge to it. Ginger, aged oak, orange, and tobacco leaf on the nose, leading to a palate of baked apples, raisins, blackberries, dark chocolate, oak, and cigar smoke.
Elegant and rich aroma with noted of dried banana, sultanas, almond, baked oats, and golden sugar on the nose combining with a bold rounded palate with savoury spice and cigar flavours. Prominent and well-balanced alcohol and lingering peppery finish.
