Carefully selecting single malt from 2008, initially matured in exceptional ex-bourbon American oak casks stored in Glencadam's historic dunnage warehouses, this unique expression was created. The single malt from these casks was then expertly combined and finished in the finest Madeira wine casks sourced from Portugal's Madeira Islands. These Madeira wine casks contribute distinctive flavours, enriching the complexity of the Glencadam Single Malt. Bottled at a robust 46% alc/vol, maintaining its natural colour and avoiding chill filtration, this is a limited release consisting of only 5,826 bottles, each bearing its individual number.
Tasting Note by Glencadam:
Nose: Inviting aromas of butterscotch and ginger biscuits mingled with caramelised pecans, dried pineapple and baking spices.
Palate: Mouth coating layers of peach cobbler, golden syrup and crème caramel married with toasted walnuts, praline and candied peels.
Finish: Impressions of brandy butter, honey cake and salted caramel leaving a dark chocolate and cinnamon glow.
