Artist Tamdhu 2006 Review
Created in 2011 by La Maison du Whisky, the yearly Artist line highlights exceptional, noteworthy single casks like this 16-year-old Speyside single malt fully matured in a sherry butt. It's bottled at cask strength (61.2 percent) and a bit more of a wine-matured behemoth, with a dark candied plum in the finish.
