Glencadam launches new limited-edition release |
This latest release which was selected and crafted by Master Distiller Robert Fleming, is said to deliver notes of praline, caramelised almonds, cocoa powder, cooked fruits, Manuka honey and sweet cinnamon on the nose. Followed by notes of Swiss chocolate, warm butterscotch, sultanas, rolling tobacco, spiced apples and warming wood spices on the palate.
Commenting on the launch, Robert Fleming said: “As one of
Scotland’s oldest distilleries, dating back to 1825, Glencadam uses traditional
methods passed down through generations to produce our award-winning single
malt. This new expression builds on the success of our latest cask finish
releases, while paying homage to the relationship between Glencadam Distillery
and the famous sherry region of Spain. These Oloroso Sherry butts impart unique
flavours, which give depth and complexity to our Reserva de Jerez expression,
showing a different side to Glencadam while embodying our commitment to
excellence.”
Limited to 1,691 bottles, Glencadam Reserva de Jerez 27 Year
Old, will be available later this month from specialist retailers, for a RRP of
£700.
