Tamdhu 15 YRS 750ml

Layers a fragrant, herbal quality on top of the rich dried fruits. Here's rosemary at its menthol crossover point, thyme, fennel seed, Douglas fir, then ripe apple and pear mixed with marmalade-like citrus fruit behind it. There's immediate richness, combined with a silky texture while the mid-palate is filled with candied peels mixed with soft orchard fruits. There's some powdered ginger and sumac towards the back adding brightness and an acidic (Sherried) twang, before the herbal qualities return.
