The second release of Tamdhu's Quercus Alba Distinction series showcases whisky matured entirely in first-fill American oak sherry casks. An opportunity for admirers of Tamdhu's sherry maturation style to discern the differences between American and European oak in the Speyside single malt Scotch. Its aroma presents creamy oatcakes, oaky vanilla spice, and a hint of waxy orange peel. On the palate, one experiences abundant sherry character, complemented by cocoa nibs, berry compote, and drizzles of caramel. The finish reveals chewy dates and a subtle note of vanilla.
