Glencadam Aged 18 Years Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 46% Age: 18 Years Old Country: Scotland
The Glencadam distillery was founded in 1825 and produces 1.5 million litres of spirit annually. The distillery has two stills and is situated near the River Esk in the Highland region of Scotland. It takes the water for its spirit from nearby springs in the surrounding green hills. The current owners are Angus Dundee plc who purchased the distillery in 2003 and also own the Tomintoul distillery in Speyside. The whisky produced at this distillery is an important component of Ballentine’s blends. Expect floral with notes of orange and citrus fruits. It has a refined dark oak undertone and is an elegant single malt whisky.
This release has been bottled at 46% vol and packaged in a striking dark emerald colour complimenting the look and feel of the Glencadam portfolio. Like all the editions in the range with age statements, the 18 years old has not been chill-filtered and no colouring has been added meaning this stunning whisky retains all original colour, aroma and taste. Rested in ex bourbon barrels and left for no less than 18 years to mature in some of the oldest warehouses in Scotland. Jim Murray has scored this Glencadam 18 Year Old 96.5/100 in his 2020 Whisky Bible making it one of the highest rated whiskies ever reviewed.
