A statement from Tamdhu explained that Batch Strength 008 is matured in Oloroso Sherry seasoned casks from the bodegas of Jerez, Spain. The whisky clocks in at 55.8% ABV.
The eighth edition in this series includes a high proportion of first-fill Sherry casks to create the Speyside whisky, the rare wood imparting a copper glow and unique taste.
The distiller’s notes show that on the nose are nutty layers of Spanish oak, with the scent of vanilla and honeycomb. The taste is of a summer orchard, with berries and sweet, candied lemon peel. The whisky finishes long with hints of figs lingering on the palate.
