Glencadam Glencadam 15 years old was completely re-launched in November 08. The selection of whisky in cask was entirely re-appraised.
The Distillery goal was to produce a refined and elegant malt with soft sweetness. From the batches of casks available, only those casks which fully met the objectives were selected. Additionally, the 15 years old was bottled at 46% vol without chill-filtration and with no added colouring to ensure that the fragrant components in the whisky are preserved to enhance impact and flavour and to allow the naturalness of the whisky in cask to be enjoyed to the full. The Distillery has also introduced a 10 years old expression. Like its older brother, the distillery management has been very deliberate about cask selection and in this case it has sought only those casks which would furnish a whisky with fresh, lively, clean and crisp citrus tones. The 10 years old expression is also bottled at 46% vol without chill-filtration and with no added colouring. The Glencadam brands have been given a new bespoke bottle: tall and round with elegant tapering to the base and featuring the distillery name and year of establishment embossed on the shoulder. The labelling has been totally re-designed to introduce an attractively upbeat and modern look where the main brand name is expressed vertically. This arresting design work is also expressed on a strikingly inviting individual carton. |
