Glencadam 15 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky
$80.00
This golden, Highland single-malt Scotch smells delicious, like honey, vanilla and fresh-cut apples. It feels light yet slick on the palate, balancing vanilla, honeysuckle, fruit and just the right amount of smoke. Each sip ends with a pleasantly peaty exhale, which seems to gently drift away on the palate little by little.
WE: 90 pts.
About
Glencadam first opened in 1825, in the ancient city of Brechin. This was the year that the first horse-drawn omnibuses were established in London, the world’s first modern railway opened, with the first public train pulled by steam engine, Cox’s Orange Pippin apples were first grown and London became the largest city in the world, over-taking Beijing. It was little more than one year after the Excise Act of 1823 legalised distilling. Glencadam is now the only distillery in the county of Angus, an area of the Highlands region of Scotland. Glencadam Single Malt has always been premium whisky for blending, and as such was highly sought after for some of the worlds most prestigious blends. Glencadam was finally bought by Angus Dundee Distillers on 1st June 2003, an independent Scottish company. Angus Dundee restarted production immediately, and we released our first ever single malt product, Glencadam Single Malt Scotch Whisky Aged 15 Years, in December 2005. This was subsequently re-launched in November 2009 with new packaging, alongside the release of a Glencadam 10 Year.
Multi-award winning Glencadam 15 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a fine example of centuries of craftsmanship and tradition. “The rather dignified” malt with a beautifully mouth-watering, true flavor.
