- Description
- Tamdhu's sherry-cask Release 4 abandons subtlety in favour of unapologetic richness, built for cigar companionship yet magnificent alone at cask strength. Dried figs, dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and spiced orange form a dense, warming palate that coats the mouth with sweet and savoury complexity. The 53.8% ABV provides punch without harshness, allowing each layer to emerge clearly. Pour this after dinner for contemplation, ideally with a quality smoke or as a standalone meditation on Speyside's sherried potential.
