Glencadam Single Cask 2008 Glencadam Bordeaux Cask Single Malt Whisky has aromas of red berries, sea buckthorn jelly, Morello cherry and cinnamon buns with nutmeg and stem ginger spices. On the palate there is Black Forest Gateau, lotus biscuits, black pepper and cake spice mingled with rolling tobacco, raspberry jam and toasted oak. The finish flows with chocolate cherry liqueurs and black coffee fading into cocoa powder, bramble compote and cedarwood.

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.
