The Distillery
Tamdhu
Tamdhu Distillery, founded in 1896 in Scotland’s Speyside whisky region, began production in 1897, designed by the renowned Charles Doig. Originally equipped with two stills, capacity expanded to four in 1972 and six in 1975 to meet the growing demand for Famous Grouse and Cutty Sark blends, where Tamdhu was a key component. After closing in 2010, along with Scotland’s last working Saladin malting boxes, Tamdhu was purchased and re-opened by Ian Macleod Distillers in 2012. Its celebrated single malts include the Tamdhu 10 Year Old and Batch Strength expressions.
