Glencadam's Master Distiller hand-selected the finest American oak bourbon barrels from Kentucky, USA to be used in the creation of Glencadam American Oak Reserve Single Malt Scotch Whisky. After being filled with new-make Glencadam spirit and placed in Glencadam’s historic dunnage warehouses, the barrels were left to mature for several years. The very best of these barrels were then bottled to become Glencadam American Oak Reserve.

About the Producer
Glencadam Distillery was built in 1825, within the Royal Burgh of Brechin, where heritage, tradition and hand crafting combine to create an elegant East Highland Single Malt.
Glencadam is located in the ancient city of Brechin, in the Eastern Highlands of Scotland. In 2021, a working water wheel was re-installed in the heart of Glencadam Distillery, a nod back to how the distillery was powered back in 1825.
Unusually, Glencadam’s stills have lyne arms that run upwards at an angle of 15 degrees, this encourages significant reflux which helps to produce a single malt which is characterised by its tropical and orchard fruit flavours.
All their age statement whiskies are bottled at 46% and are neither chill filtered nor coloured to retain the whisky's natural characteristics.
