GLENCADAM 15 Year Old, 46% ABV

Part of its core range showcasing the distillery's expression, Glencadam 15 Years Old is wholly matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks to create this extremely well-balanced fruity and creamy East Highland single malt with notes of orchard fruits, sweet vanilla and liquorice.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A fragrant bouquet of floral and fruity notes, featuring hints of citrus, fresh-cut grass, and delicate vanilla. Subtle undertones of honey and green apple add to its inviting aroma.

Palate: Smooth and well-balanced, showcasing a harmonious blend of sweet malt, ripe pear, and creamy toffee. A touch of spice, including cinnamon and white pepper, enhances the complexity.

Finish: Long and elegant, with lingering notes of oak, gentle spices, and a hint of dark chocolate.

Key Information

Serving Suggestions
First things first, be comfortable, relaxed and free from distractions. Pour a healthy amount (15-25ml) into a nosing glass (e.g., glencairn) and let it sit for a while. We recommend a minute of resting in the glass for every year in the cask. Otherwise, let it settle down for 5-10 minutes at least.

Help yourself to a 'warm up dram' in the meantime - something simple to open up the palate. When ready, start nosing the spirit, followed by sipping it (noting how it arrives on your palate and its development), and finally the finish. Take your time to get to know the spirit, noting its expression, character, depth, complexity and flavours. These can all change with adding drops of water so play around to find different sides of the spirit and identity a personal sweet spot for yourself!

But always remember, the best way to drink it is the way you like it!
