Glencadam 10 Years Higland Single Malt [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Highland single malt that perfectly balances tradition with exceptional craftsmanship?

The Glencadam 10 Years Highland Single Malt represents nearly two centuries of unwavering Scottish distilling excellence from the Eastern Highlands. This non-chill filtered expression showcases the distillery’s commitment to natural color and authentic flavor development through exclusive American oak ex-bourbon barrel maturation. Unlike lighter Speyside expressions such as the Tomintoul 16 Years or robust aged offerings like The Dalmore 25 Years, Glencadam strikes an elegant middle ground with remarkable complexity.
