USA RE-LAUNCHING OF TAMDHU
Tamdhu, one of Speyside’s founding distilleries has officially re-launched today in the United States with a stunning new 10 year old Speyside Single Malt.
Acquired in June 2011 by Ian Macleod Distillers — the leading Scottish independent family owned distiller and bottler — Tamdhu Distillery was established in 1897 by a consortium of pioneering businessmen who embodied the ‘can-dhu’ spirit of their generation.
Inspired by an age of industry and endeavor, the Tamdhu story is one of enlightenment that began, and continues to this day, on the banks of the River Spey. Now, just as then, Tamdhu is matured in only the finest oak sherry casks with natural Speyside water from the Tamdhu spring.
The new Tamdhu 10 years old has the softness of vanilla and sugared almonds on the nose, balanced by fresh oak and cinnamon. Bursting with fruit and spice and gently yielding to toffee, there is a richness of sherry oak on the palate with a gentle hint of peat smoke wisp.
Designed to maximize on-shelf presence, the packaging communicates the Brand’s values and provenance with a stylish, textured black, white and gold tube, illustrated monograms and an elegant glass bottle, inspired by the Victorian era.
ImpEx’s leaders, Ed Kohl and Sam Filmus agree that as a Speyside Distillery, Tamdhu is a particularly exciting addition to the family because it perfectly complements their already diverse Scotch portfolio. The distillery’s
incredible pedigree and history will captivate connoisseurs and beginners alike, further extending the reach of
ImpEx’s network and making its tasting seminars even more compelling.
“Tamdhu has a reputation for producing exceptional quality single malt. [We have ensured] that our best casks had hit their peak before bottling. With a focus on quality, we have honored the careful distillation process to create a premium malt Scotch whisky we believe Tamdhu’s founders would be proud of.” – Leonard Russell, Managing Director and third generation of the family-owned Ian Macleod Distillers.
“We are committed to growing the Brand within the USA, and are confident it will prove popular with whisky enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike.”– Roderick Mackenzie, Ian Macleod Distillers Area Sales Director.
Tamdhu 10 years old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky will be available in the US for distribution in mid-December 2013.
We’re honored that we can make the ‘Can-dhu’ spirit part of your holiday spirit this year and we’d like to wish you a wonderful Holiday season!
Warm regards,
Ed Kohl,
