Tamdhu is located in the Speyside producing area in Scotland, UK. It is a distillery with more than 100 years of whiskey making history.

In 1897, William Grant of Highland Distillers joined several like-minded entrepreneurs with the dream of brewing the best whiskey in the world to create Tamdhu. The founders of Tamdhu shared the same philosophy and were committed to completing everything to the best possible degree. Therefore, after the distillery was established, they invited the best distillery construction engineer at that time - Mr. Charles C Doig ESQ to join. In addition, several entrepreneurs carefully selected the address of the distillery on the banks of the River Spey, adopted the most advanced technology at the time, and imported top-quality sherry barrels from Spain. Unfortunately, two years after its founding, Tamdhu encountered financial difficulties and was sold to the Highland Distilling Company.

In 1949, Tamdhu modernized the traditional floor sprouting with the introduction of the Saladin Box. The Saladin Box is a French invention that mechanizes the process of turning barley. This change in Tamdhu has greatly reduced the burden on distillery workers and also increased Tamdhu’s output. Over the next 15 years, Tamdhu's output continued to grow, and the demand for malt further increased, so the distillery once again introduced an upgraded version of the IO Saladin Box.

In the 1970s, the whiskey boom increased demand for whiskey, and Tamdhu expanded and added four distilling machines. In 1999, the Edrington Group took over Highland Distilling Company and its Tamdhu business. In 2010, due to external pressure, the Tamdhu Distillery was forced to close. In 2011, Edlington Group sold Tamdhu to Ian Macleod Distillers (hereinafter referred to as IMD Company). After IMD took over, it restarted the distillery in 2012, revitalized the Tamdhu brand, and decided to abandon traditional indoor malting and purchase malt from external suppliers.

In terms of brewing equipment, Tamdhu has 9 Douglas fir fermentation tanks and 3 pairs of distillers. In addition, Tamdhu attaches great importance to the selection of oak barrels. In Tamdhu’s view, sherry barrels play a vital role in the flavor and color of its whiskey, so Tamdhu uses top-quality sherry barrels from Spain. Once the whiskey is barreled, it is shipped to warehouses for aging. Tamdhu has multiple warehouses, including 4 wooden pad warehouses, 1 shelf warehouse and 5 pallet warehouses.
