Best Scotch for the $ ?

[Luckey]

I happened to be shopping for a bottle of whisky for a friend and the owner of the store recommended a speyside named Tamdhu. I have never heard of this particular label, but he sang its praises most eloquently. Plus at $24.99 per, I had to try it. I must say, most enjoyable, and the best 10 year old I have ever had - clean, fruity and refreshing with little aftertaste. All things considered, it's my new favorite.

Thanks! I almost bought a bottle of Tamdhu the other day, but didn't, thinking "What if it's horrible?" Now, I'll go back and get it...!

It's not whisky, but should be consumed like it is:

BrewDog's Tactical Nuclear Penguin, 32%abv

LOVE the warning:

"BrewDog Warning

This is an extremely strong beer, it should be enjoyed in small servings and with an air of aristocratic nonchalance. In exactly the same manner that you would enjoy a fine whisky, a Frank Zappa album or a visit from a friendly yet anxious ghost."

I just picked up a bottle of Tamdhu an hour ago, for $28.99 at Beverages & More. Last bottle on the shelf, alas.

So after reading this posting last evening I just happened to drop by the local ABC (Liquor) here in Virginia and low and behold I came across Tamdhu for $19.99 a bottle sitting here at the moment with a wee Dram and I must say I certainly agree with the above statement fruity I taste a bit of Pear & Peach followed quickly with a dash of Pepper and a very clean finish and no distinct aftertaste , so I too have to add this to my favorite list , though my main standard is Glennfiddich 12 or 15
