TAMNAVULIN 10yo 1980s 40% abv 750ml An old distillery bottling of Tamnavulin, released in the 1980s as Tamnavulin-Glenlivet when it was much more common for distilleries to add the Glenlivet suffix to their names. Tamnavulin is a modern distillery and although the brand is a familiar sight in supermarkets and off licenses nowadays, that wasn't always the case and this 1980s Tamnavulin 10-year-old would most likely have been quite hard to find even back when it was released. This should be a nice easy-drinking '80s-style Speyside dram.
TAMNAVULIN 10yo 1980s 40% abv 750ml Tamnavulin was one of the distilleries built in the whisky boom of the early 1960s when demand was so far outstripping supply that new facilities had to be constructed. It was built by Invergordon Distillers (whose portfolio also included a grain distillery, Bruichladdich, Tullibardine and Jura). It had six stills and, for a period, Saladin maltings. Invergordon was in turn bought by Whyte & Mackay. In 1995, with the whisky market in steady decline, it was mothballed, only reopening in 2007 when Whyte & Mackay was purchased by Indian giant United Spirits. Its function as a supplier of fillings however hasn’t altered. It changed hands once again in 2014 when Whyte & Mackay was sold to Philippine-based Emperador.
