Glencadam Reserve de Cognac is a rare and exceptional limited edition single malt, one of just 4,800 bottles, personally created by the Glencadam Master Distiller. Distilled in 2006 and matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks before a finishing period in the finest Cognac casks sourced from the Cognac region of France, it is a whisky of extraordinary complexity, depth, and elegance that stands apart from anything else in the Glencadam range. Why You'll Love It The Reserve de Cognac represents Glencadam at its most ambitious. Selected from the distillery's historic dunnage warehouses, this single malt was chosen for its exceptional quality before being finished in premium Cognac casks, adding a layer of richness and refinement that transforms an already outstanding spirit into something truly special. With only 4,800 bottles in existence, this is a whisky for those who appreciate rarity, craftsmanship, and the kind of complexity that only comes from exceptional cask selection and patient maturation.

Glencadam 15 Year Old Single Malt Whisky
Glencadam 15 Year Old is a beautifully balanced, fruity, and creamy Eastern Highlands single malt that represents the distillery at its most expressive. Wholly matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks, it is a whisky of real depth and elegance, awarded an outstanding 98 points out of 100 at the IWSC and widely regarded as one of the finest single malts at its age. Bottled at natural colour, unchillfiltered, and at 46% ABV. Why You'll Love It Five more years in the cask transforms Glencadam's already impressive 10 Year Old into something altogether richer and more complex. The additional maturation in American oak ex-bourbon barrels builds layers of orchard fruit, creamy vanilla, and gentle spice that make this one of the most rewarding whiskies in the Eastern Highlands style. With gold medals from the IWSC, Scotch Whisky Masters, and San Francisco World Spirits Competition, the industry verdict is clear. This is exceptional whisky. Distillery & Maturation Glencadam distillery has been producing whisky in Brechin since 1825, and the 15 Year Old is wholly matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks throughout its entire ageing period. This single cask type builds a consistent, characterful profile of orchard fruits, sweet vanilla, and creamy texture that defines the Glencadam house style at its most developed. Bottled without chill filtration and at a full 46% ABV to preserve every nuance of flavour. Tasting Notes The nose is pronounced and inviting, with orchard fruits and vanilla pod mingled with citrus peel and toasted nuts. On the palate, sweet and creamy with layers of sugared almond and panna cotta, followed by notes of dried apple, nutmeg, and cocoa powder. The finish is perfectly balanced, with creamy rice pudding and gentle cinnamon spices lingering long on the tongue. Best enjoyed neat or with a small drop of water. Perfect Serve Enjoy neat to appreciate the full depth and creaminess of the spirit, or add a few drops of still water to open up the orchard fruit
