"From Spain to Speyside": Tamdhu matures exclusively in oloroso sherry casks from Jerez, Spain.
The distillery was founded in 1897 by a group of like-minded entrepreneurs whose goal was to pursue their passion and produce the best whisky in the world. In doing so, the group always agreed on one thing: only the best is good enough! It was finally hired the renowned architect and engineer Charles C Doig to build the distillery on the River Spey, installed the best production equipment and selected the most excellent sherry casks from Spain.

In 2010 the distillery had to close and was brought back to life in 2012 by the family business Ian MacLeod with a passionate team that today honors the Tamdhu craft. Even today, after more than 100 years, these sherry casks make Tamdhu a unique Scotch whisky and are transported from Spain to Scotland exclusively as a whole, so that all the cask flavors are preserved. The water used for production comes from the Tamdhu spring, which was also used in the founding times. For the premium quality of Tamdhu provides additionally the renunciation of colorants.
