This is actually the first Tamnavulin in this little blog, which shows that it's a distillery that flies under the radar. It produces well over 4 million LPG. On the other hand, it belongs to Whyte & Mackay, who are more known for their color monsters with E150a. It's all the more pleasing that this whisky from James Eadie is a complete bottling without color or chill filtering, but at cask strength. The whisky was finished for 20 months in first-fill Oloroso sherry butt from European oak and demonstrates how beautiful, dark-colored whiskies can be achieved without artificial color. glen-efze.de
Tamnavulin 2013 - 2025, 11 years, 57.4% alc. James Eadie, Germany Exclusive. Aging: Re-aged in Olroso sherry cask no. 373071 for 20 months. Nose: Sweet, really sweet. Red gummy bears and raspberry jam at first, but the aromas quickly mature. Sultanas and almonds emerge, followed by some chocolate and dried cherries. Plums, rose water, various woods, and spices linger in the background. Palate: Continues just as sweet, making the alcohol barely noticeable. Preserved fruits, including plums, brown sugar, walnuts and roasted almonds, sugar syrup, raisins. Finish: Rather long and still sweet, though now a little less syrupy and a bit drier. Notes of wood, cocoa, and latte emerge once again. Conclusion: A truly enjoyable whisky for those who appreciate a particularly sweet and fruity taste. Round, very well-balanced, and wonderfully enjoyable. 87/100 points (2025)
