Glencadam Berry Bros & Rudd - Single Cask #800216 Whisky 12 Year Old · 2011 Vintage
In stock
A final year maturing in ex-sweet wine casks has brought out the playful fruitiness of this delightful Glencadam. Apricots, peaches, orange blossom and honey yoghurt all flutter out of the glass, making for a wonderfully refreshing nose.
The palate is gloriously thick, bringing more bright fruits along with mango syrup, chewy dried pineapple and a hint of drying wood varnish. All of this is wrapped up on the lingering palate by further notes of fruit syrup. This is amazingly fresh and floral.

Nose
Final-year maturation in ex-sweet wine casks unlocks a playful fruitiness: apricots and peaches mingle with orange blossom and honey yoghurt, fluttering from the glass in a refreshingly floral, inviting aroma.
Palate
Thick and luxurious on the palate, it presents bright fruits with mango syrup and chewy dried pineapple, crowned by a hint of drying wood varnish. The finish lingers with fruit syrup, wonderfully fresh and floral.
Finish
Long, fruit-syrup finish with apricot and mango lingering; dried pineapple threads through, touched by a delicate drying wood varnish. A bright, floral lift remains, refreshing and subtly sweet as it fades.
