1/If you like Tamdhu 15, the bottle that tastes most like it is The GlenDronach 15 Revival. It gives a Tamdhu 15 drinker about 100% of what the Tamdhu does, and it does so for 87% of the price.
2/The Tamdhu 15 runs molasses, orange peel and prickly oak spices into sweet sherry, cinnamon and dark chocolate. The GlenDronach 15 Revival leans on ripe cherries, walnuts and marzipan. Both reviews share spices, sherry, cinnamon and chocolate.
3/Tamdhu 15 is $202 at Dan Murphy's this week; The GlenDronach 15 Revival is $176. That's about $7.95 a pour at home against $6.93. Stay with the Tamdhu if it's your bottle; reach for the GlenDronach 15 Revival when you fancy a change.
