- Description
- 8 years of age and a modest 43.0% ABV make Tamdhu a young contender. Priced at £33.83, it doesn't reach for the stars. With 3.0 ratings from a couple of reviewers, consider it 'Sherried' and 'Toasted', although expectations might need managing. Perhaps it's more of a footnote in a whisky narrative than a headline.
