Only 100 bottles of the single malt are available
TAMDHU Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky has unveiled its oldest ever bottling to mark the distillery’s 120th anniversary, costing £16,000 a bottle.
Only 100 bottles of the 50-year-old malt, matured in a first fill European oak sherry butt, will be made available globally and are presented in a hand-designed decanter created by a team of traditional British craftsmen and women.
Leonard Russell, managing director of Ian Macleod Distillers, who own Tamdhu, said: “One hundred and twenty years of expertise and 50 years of maturation in an extraordinary sherry oak cask have gone into making Tamdhu 50 Year Old.
“What makes this whisky really special to us is that it represents the rebirth of the distillery.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
