I'm drinking this right now as I watch this video. I like to drink my whiskey with honey. A bit of honey on your tounge and a sip of whiskey. Ahh life is good.
If you like a non/ little peated whisky, sweet but not to sweet, raisins, honeycomb, oak, full soft and round flavour you defenitly should try this one, it's very nice.
....it depends on 3 to 5 topics you should consider. 1. put the bottle upright 2. seal the cork additional with parafilm tape very close. ( seal it extra ....however ) 3. the whisky should have „min. 43 %.....better 46% !! ...because the bottle will lose a bit alcohol % over the decades. 4. the storing place/shelf (ore the BOX) of the bottle should be dark enough. 5. the temperature in the room should be as constant as possible. That’s it.....40 to 60 years....however ....should never be a problem now !✔️ And now....in any way....Good Luck😁
Yes. But not if the cork's seal is maintained. Natural corks will eventually lose their seal and disintegrate. (It's not unusual when you open a very old bottle for the cork to just crumble.) When they lose their integrity ambient air may enter the bottle. Then the whisk(e)y will decline.
One thing alluded to but not specifically mentioned, keep it out of the light. I always see these amazing collections on custom shelving with bright lights all over the place pointing at the bottles. If you're stowing bottles away for a few years, keep them in the dark. If you open a bottle and drink it over 2 months to a year or so, (if it's not an extremely rare well-aged [ie. more than 18 years]) then it's really no problem to be less protective of it, you can have it in a glass whisky cabinet or however you like (being exposed to ambient light) but never shine bright lights on your collection or store it in a windowsill with sunlight. It'll ruin it!
Great review Horst. I especially enjoyed the info about malting process in the saladin boxes. Prost 😊🥃!!
Thanks for this excellent review... 👍
Horst never pours too much. Ben always pours way too much.
A great dram!
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONING!!!!!!
What glasses are you using? Thanks! Great review! I really liked it as well.
That are called Glencairn
@@Lee-yn1by No, I don't think this is a Glencairn glass. Don't know which one it is though...

Ive got a bottle of Tamdhu and a bottle of Glenfarclas 15 to pick up in 3 days time 🎉
How would you compare to the 10 year old?
Smells nicer than it tastes Perfer Glenfarclas 15 but still a Fine dram
Sounds good..never tried Tamdhu...a cheaper version of Macallan they say...

Tamdhu 12 nice bottle. Better name. Egg Nog 12 Reserve. Spiced. 43 max. By Tamdhu. Darling I'm home.
Can unopened whiskey get bad?
