Tamdhu
relaunched with a new Tamdhu 10 year old
expression.
One
of Speyside’s founding distilleries,
Tamdhu has been re-launched with a new
10 year old Single Malt.
Acquired in June 2011 by Ian Macleod
Distillers, leading Scottish independent
family owned distiller and bottler,
Tamdhu Distillery was established in
1897 by a consortium of pioneering
businessmen who embodied the ‘can-dhu’
spirit of their generation.
The new Tamdhu 10 year old has a softness of
vanilla and sugared almonds on the nose
balanced by fresh oak and cinnamon.
Bursting with fruit and spice, which
gently yields to toffee, there is a
richness of sherry oak on the palate
with a gentle hint of peat smoke wisp.
The new Tamdhu comes in a stylish,
textured black, white and gold tube,
illustrated monograms and an elegant
glass bottle, inspired by the Victorian
era.
Commenting on the launch, Leonard
Russell, managing director and third
generation of the family-owned Ian
Macleod Distillers, said:
"Tamdhu has a reputation for producing
exceptional quality single malt and we
are excited to re-launch Tamdhu today.
We are committed to revitalising and
growing Tamdhu not only as a brand but
from an economic and investment
perspective with new jobs created and
significant investment in the
infrastructure and fabric of the
Distillery.
"The re-launch has been in the planning
for nearly two years to ensure that our
best casks had hit their peak before
bottling. With a focus on quality, we
have honoured the careful distillation
process to create a premium malt Scotch
whisky we believe Tamdhu’s founders
would be proud of."
Iain Weir, Ian Macleod Distillers’
Marketing Director, added:
"Tamdhu is a perfect complement to our
existing portfolio of brands, delivering
a premium Speyside malt and real point
of difference for the category. There
has been significant interest from
consumers and trade to see what we would
do with Tamdhu and the Speyside Whisky
Festival is the perfect platform to
reintroduce the brand on its home soil.
"We are committed to growing the brand
within the UK and internationally, and
are confident it will prove popular with
whisky enthusiasts and connoisseurs
alike."
Tamdhu 10 year old Speyside Single Malt
Scotch Whisky is available across the UK with an RRP of £34.99. It will be distributed
globally over the coming months.
In addition, a special commemorative 10
year old bottling, which is matured in
100% first fill sherry casks, has been
released by Ian Macleod Distillers. Only
1000 limited edition bottles are
available to buy online at the new
Tamdhu website priced at £100.
