Tamdhu

Colour: Old gold
The nose is pleasant from the very first. Not overly complex but it plays more on the register of subtlety. It takes a while to give its full potential. Notes fairly close to each other, roasted malt, cocoa and hints of dried fruit. Some spices also.
A first impression in the mouth which contrasts with that announced by the nose. The palate is more complex, and here the sherry takes over, in conjunction with the notes of cocoa which already marked the nose. A slight woody bitterness scraping nothing from the fun but increasing a little in complexity.
Alcohol is perfectly controlled.
The finish is very long, and is shared between sherry and oak that marked the mouth.
An excellent bottle.

Color: Gold
A nose of rare finesse. Beautiful notes of gingerbread, the ripe fruit and gentian ... in short, a wonderful blend of sweet spices, fruity sweetness and bitterness. Notes of green fruit are added, giving a new dimension to the nose: a nice note. acid
The nose is constantly changing.
The mouth is the perfect extension of the nose. Here too the taste buds travel in a complex world, the four cardinal points of taste ... sweetness, bitterness and acidity ... The whole is beautifully balanced, complex but still a great classic. No false note.
The finish is pleasantly warm and relatively long. Here too, we find in turn the bitter notes and the sweetness of ripe fruit. Spices are less present than in the nose.
A remarkable bottle.

Couleur: Or
Mis à part un léger picotement assez envahissant, surtout au début, ce nez est très agréable. Beaucoup de notes fruitées, allant de la prune à la poire, couvrant donc une large gamme d'odeurs. Ce nez est donc délicieusement complexe, surtout quand au bout de quelques minutes de discrètes notes boisées viennent s'ajouter.
Si le reste de la dégustation est à la hauteur, nous avons indéniablement affaire à un grand whisky.
En bouche, le côté fruité se fait légèrement plus discret et on est d'abord surpris par un côté acide relativement agressif. Une fois ces premières impressions passées, on revient assez rapidement sur de très agréables sensations. Une belle impression de chaleur et des notes de confiture de prunes avec toujours ce petit goût de noix en arrière-fond. D'abord surprenante, cette bouche évolue vers d'intéressantes notes alliant une acidité marquée à des relents de café. Très surprenant
La finale est longue et en parfait accord avec la bouche. Les notes de café mêlées à cette acidité assez marquée subsistent de longues minutes.

Color: Gold
A fruity nose with hints of overripe fruit. The presence of sherry is undeniable. The nose is bright, but is reluctant to reveal all its secrets.
The taste is agreeable, although lacking in candor. A mixture of fruits, nuts, some wood. The fruity notes are complemented by a slightly acidic bitterness. Difficult to define.
The finish is moderate, rather long and here too the same contrasts fruit-bitter acid are present.

This is an elusive bottle. Undoubtedly pleasant, but slightly unbalanced.
