@5:20 - Nailed it
Tamdhu must have some really nice casks because I haven't had a bad one yet. The 12 is really nice the 15 decadent and the batch strength is also really good. I picked the batch strength for my whisky of the year for 2022 it just hit the right spot....cheers!!!
Will be reviewing the 15 and the batch strength shortly too!
if you loved this one..boy you are going to love the 15 i love it it´s fantastic!!!!!
Review of the 15 on it's way 😉
Your video answered for me the question that Tamdhu 12 yo is valuable alternative for Macallan 12 yo sherry cask. Thanks
You're welcome! So glad you enjoyed the video 🥃
Look forward seeing you get to your first 1000. You deserve it.
Have added the 15yr old to my list actually but i think Glenallachie 15 may be even nicer? Not tried the Tamdhu distillery yet. The whisky list is at around 40 bottles... there is only so many i can drink and afford to stash!
The one i really want to try, and will buy on a very special occasion is Springbank 12 cask strength. You tried that? I really love the 10, and 15 was interesting too, but i only had a little sample of that one
Appreciate the love!
The never ending whisky list! I have the same situation 😂
The GlenAllachie 15 is definitely sweeter (I love them both). I may need to do a Tamdhu 15 Versus Glenallachie 15 video!
Felicitaciones por está fantástica reseña y Review Bro, muy buena tan buena que me dieron ganas de salir a comprar ya uno😂 lástima que acá en argentina subieron muchísimo los precios de los wiskhys y sobre todo los importados de ese nivel, abrazo y gracias por tus grandes Review's 🥃🥃
Gracias hermano, en comparación con los whiskies de 12 años en Australia, el Tamdhu 12 sigue siendo un gran precio, pero sí, los precios generales del whisky aquí están por las nubes 😢
Excelent review, mate, now that malt wil be my New treasure to find...many tanx!!!
I struggled with this as I had already had the 15yr then batch stgh. which I adored and repurchased both (on special). It also has some stiff competition with Glendronach, Deanston ,even Bunnahabain 12y old's
Thanks,
AL
This one I like more than the GlenDronach 12 though, but Bunna 12 is much better!
Definitely adding this to my 'explore' list, thanks!
Hope you enjoy it!
Great review, man. I just ordered one after watching this. Excited to taste it when it arrives.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Love me some of that 12! I hear the 18 is something special but just a hair out of my price range. Will look out for minis! Thanks Wade!
Yeah the 18 is virtually impossible to find here. The minis are the go!
Hope you are well my bro!
Glad you enjoyed it so much, great video man! I'm not a massive sherry fan so I always avoided this one but I'm not gonna lie, I am tempted :)
I definitely lean into sherried whiskies. This one is surprisingly good for chill filtered and 43%
What is your preferred whisky style brother?
@@McIntyresMalts I move from either a very clean just ex-bourbon matured peated or unpeated whisky to again peated or unpeated (as they both have merits) wine finished/matured whiskies like Bordeaux, Tawny Port, Rioja etc. I love a PX touch but it's the Oloroso that really puts me off.
Mate, just found your channel and i can say i really like your approach, Go on, subscribers will come, one more you just got.
Thank you my friend, appreciate the comment and the sub! Looking forward to making more great videos for you 😊
Any suggested whiskies you'd like to see me review?
Thanks for the heads-up. Now if I could only find it in Minnesota USA.
Good luck on the hunt mate! It's interesting to hear of different whiskies available in different markets, odd how some what seem common whiskies are rare in some places.
I would love to see you do a review about tamdhu batch strenght.
It's in the queue my friend! I have a bottle of batch 4 and a sample of batch 6 that I will probably compare in a review, it's just a long queue!! 😂
Will also be opening the Tamdhu 18 shortly for review as well 😉
I have really enjoyed the few Tamdhus I've managed to try (12yo included). I'd love to see this range on more shelves here.
Yes it's odd that it now seems to be only in Dans, and they don't seem to be in a hurry to replace it either. Hopefully we see it show up again in more Indy stores soon!
Great, enjoying Tamdhu 12 & your review 🎉
Thank you so much 🙂
It's my hope that people taste along, it's more fun that way 🥃
It’s delicious, but I wouldn’t say it destroys the Macallan. It’s actually rather similar to the 12 sherry oak… maybe less sherry forward than the Macallan.
Where I am the Tamdhu 12 is $105 Vs. Macallan 12 Sherry Oak for $130+
Tamdhu is 43% and Macallan is 40% ABV
The Tamdhu has better flavour, better stats, better value. I'd buy it over the Macallan 12 Sherry Oak every day of the week.
@@McIntyresMalts if you add value to the mix, yeah, it destroys the Macallan. But I’m not 100% sure I enjoy the Tamdhu more. Need to do a side by side myself one of these days. Cheers!
Can confirm. Tamdhu 12 is better than Macallan 12.
Better price, better nose, better taste, better ABV. Easy win 😉
Thanks!
Tried several of the Tamdhu expressions, including the Cask Strength & like Macallan there’s a common note in it that I just can’t stomach, despite all the hype given to the brand.
Yeah if you don't like Macallan you won't like Tamdhu. You not a fan of sherry influence on a whisky Clinton or just on these specific ones?
@@McIntyresMalts I enjoy my Sherry matured, huge Bunna fan, enjoy the Glengoynes & was a huge fan of the old GlenDronachs. So not the Sherry influence that puts me off, I also enjoy the ginger notes in most whiskies, but these two have a note similar to ginger that I don’t enjoy, it’s the spicy note that stays in the finish.
@@clintondeabreu8565 Ah yes I know the note you are talking about
I have that sample pack and had no idea that booklet was hidden in there. Just found it 🙂
It is a nice little touch from the distillery isn’t it!
This made me want to get a replacement so I can drink mine guilt free 😂
😂😂😂
In which chain store is it found? Thanks!
If you are located in Australia the only place you will likely find it is Dan Murphys. Hope this helps!
GWhisky says that it's 'elegant'. Would you agree?
Hey John, it's not the first descriptor that comes to mind for me, but I wouldn't disagree 😊
It's definitely a lovely whisky if you are a fan of Sherried whiskies like Macallan and want a better Macallan 😅
@@McIntyresMalts As you would say, 'it's on my list'!
Your reaction makes me curious, I'm going to buy a bottle (only €43,-)
I hope you enjoy it like I do!
@@McIntyresMalts I'll let you know
I held a whisky tasting today: the tamdhu 12 beats the Speyburn 16, Edradour 10, Glenlivet captains reserve and Indri trini three wood. Wonderfull whisky!
This is a very good one yes rhis bottle is emtey from me i need to buy a new one 😅 bud yes so good is this one a real gem en cheap bud the 15 en the 18 year old are pricey drom this distillery bid if they are just as good as the 12 year old then its no problem bud i need to get a new 12 year old tamdhu i really like this one ❤
Can I give a bit of constructive criticism? There is way too much dead air in this video. It's painful to get though.
Appreciate the feedback mate, do you mean in terms of the music between the conversation or the general flow of the video?
@@McIntyresMalts tons of breaks in the banter. Especially during the taste. Everything else was really good.
Зачем руки-то изуродовал?
Вы имеете в виду миниатюру видео? Мой третий палец находится прямо под Glencairn, так как их не очень удобно держать, и я ловлю себя на том, что хватаюсь таким образом.
