Speyside distillery Tamdhu has launched The Dedication Collection, an ultra premium whisky range, with its oldest single malt yet.
Aged in a trio of Oloroso sherry seasoned oak casks, and bottled at 50.8% ABV, this 43-Years-Old is non-chill filtered with naturally rich colour.
On the nose, we’re told this exclusive single malt offers ‘rich sherry, treacle toffee, dried coriander, berries, citrus and dried spice’. On the palate expect ‘orange, blackcurrant, molasses, chocolate coconut and hints of coffee, followed by a long sherry oak finish, with hints of lemon and dried berries.’
The premium whisky is presented in a hand-crafted, octagonal, wooden and classic brushed metal box, in a bespoke hand-blown crystal decanter.

Exclusive photography collaboration and distillery experience
To celebrate the launch of The Dedication Collection, the Speyside distillery has teamed with leading photomicrographer, Peter Woitschikowski to create striking photographs of the spirit up close. Bridging the gap between science and art, Woitschikowski uses a microscope fixed to a high-resolution camera to reveal unexpected shapes and textures.
To capture the one-of-a-kind images, the photographer crystalised the whisky with natural extracts inspired by the aforementioned tasting notes, using these as the canvas for the Tamdhu photographed at 43 times magnification, a microscope turn for every year the whisky sat in sherry oak casks.
Says Woitschikowski: “You never know how the images will come out. And every picture is different and unique. Tamdhu was a special case because the whisky is so pure. So perfect. We had to add extracts to create the crystallisation required. The results are quite beautiful, I believe.”
Every Tamdhu 43-Years-Old includes a personal invitation from Distillery Manager Sandy McIntyre to an exclusive stay at the closed-to-public distillery, as well as the opportunity to explore the traditional dunnage warehouses for more of the rarest and oldest casks that may well become the next additions to the Dedication Collection.
Limited to just 100 individually numbered bespoke decanters, a bottle of Tamdhu 43-Years-Old sells for £13,500, and is available via specialist retailers. Tamdhu says its Dedication Collection will eventually comprise eight releases.
