Glencadam Distillery launches a limited edition of its Highland Single Malt – Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish Aged 19 Years.
The Sherry cask “Finish” has been created by the careful selection of mature whisky “finished” in Oloroso Sherry butts.
The malt whisky was transferred from Bourbon casks into the hand-picked butts to “finish” its maturation for a generous period of time.
This process of “finishing” bestows on the whisky refined characteristics, most notably, tones of Sherry sweetness.
The result is an “enriched” and beautifully crafted Glencadam Highland Single Malt expression.
Just a limited amount of 6000 bottles were produced from the Sherry butts and each bottle is individually numbered.
Nose: Sophisticated pot-pourri of floral malt, raisiny fruit cake with Sherry notes merging with mocha chocolate and crushed walnuts.
Palate: Mature barley-malt elements are balanced by the rich flavours of fruit cake, mixed nuts and raisins gently drying to embrace some cigar box spiciness.
Finish: Wonderfully complex and sumptuous
Jim Murray has scored this Glencadam 19 Year Old Oloroso Sherry Finish Single Malt Whisky 84/100 in his 2020 Whisky Bible ‘Mainly, though not quite, free of sulphur so the whiskey after 19 years gets a good chance to speak relatively ungagged, though somewhat muffled.’
