Portrait: What makes the Glencadam 15 year old special
Often still unknown, but usually unforgotten after tasting: This is Glencadam whiskey. The single malts from the small distillery from the East Highlands are created as they were when Glencadam was founded and mature in a variety of high-quality barrels.
At the beginning of the 2000s it was time: Glencadam should No longer just a nameless component of Scottish blends, but rather make a name for itself. Finally. The distillery from the town of Brechin in the Eastern Highlands has officially been around since 1825.
The founding date shows: Glencadam was licensed early on , after the “Excise Act” massively reduced taxes on whisky. At the same time, an official founding during this period indicates that there were probably “illicit stills” on site beforehand, i.e. that they were distilled illegally.
Tasting Notes: This is how the Glencadam 15 year old tastes like
- Nose: salty aromas paired with an elegant sweetness
- Palate: freshly cut grass, a mouth-filling malt note, a slight sweetness of ripe garden fruits, plus soft oak tones
- Finish: medium-long finish, again the malt and the oak - pleasantly sweet

Schön, leicht, floral und fruchtig, aber auch mit einem Hauch von Würze. Ein toller Sommerwhisky.
