A serious sherry-cask drinker who has worked through the standard distillery range and wants something with a story attached.
What it is
Tamdhu 2014 Vintage single malt at 50.7% ABV, 100% Oloroso sherry cask matured, with an exclusive hand-blown crystal Glencairn glass. Bottled for the Club by Tamdhu’s Sandy ‘Big Mac’ McIntyre. $15 flat shipping. Member price $155.
Why we picked it
This is a club-exclusive batch-strength bottling, so it is one of the few whisky gifts he provably cannot have bought himself at a bottle shop. The crystal Glencairn turns it from a bottle into a set.
Alcohol. Sold to over-18s only by The Whisky Club, who verifies age at checkout and on delivery.
