Morning All,

Last week I went to our local wine and spirit shop looking for a good whisky to give as a birthday gift to a good friend and fellow scotch drinker.  While deciding between several good and well-known brands, the owner, a gentleman with a very educated palat, recommeded some Tamdhu, a Speyside.  He said he always keeps bottles at both his home as well as his cottage.  He also stated that his good friend who has a "well stocked"  whisky bar thought it (Tamdhu) was a very old, very expensive whisky after tasting it for the first time. 

I have never heard of Tamdhu before (I lead a sheltered life), but took his advise and purchased a bottle.  Gave it to my friend who promptly opened it to share - told you he was a good friend - and was I ever suprised!  Very fruity to spicy nose, slightly pale in color, and amazingly good.  One website I checked described it as refreshing - a very good description.  All this for $28.00!

A great whisky at a great price, what more can a person ask for!
