The founding date shows that Glencadam was licensed early after the “Excise Act” massively reduced taxes on whiskey. At the same time, an official foundation during this period indicates that there were probably “illicit stills” on site before that, i.e. illegal burning took place. The Glencadam 18 years proves that it was worth waiting (at least) 180 years for single malts from the distillery.

The new edition of the elegant standard bottling, which has been awaited for years, matures in bourbon casks and creates autumn anticipation. Aromas of tropical fruits and spices on the nose, followed by a complex and fruity palate before ending in a soft, warm and lingering finish.

Glencadam, which translates as “Valley of the Wild Goose”, was commissioned in Brechin in 1825. Most of the production is used for the Ballantines brand. After 180 years in the whisky waiting loop, Glencadam took the step out of the shadow of the blend industry onto the stage of the original bottlers. But rather quietly. Their “East Highlands” single malt made from unpeated barley malt is still considered an insider tip today.
The whiskies, which are up to 30 years old and neither coloured nor chill-filtered, are produced in two original copper pot stills, just as they were in the founding days of the small distillery. Due to their construction, these produce a particularly delicate and soft spirit. This is because the Lyne arms run at an angle of 15 degrees upwards, not downwards.
