About this bottle
A scotch whisky from Scotland from Glencadam, Glencadam 25 Year Old 1996 (cask 9746) - Sauternes Barrel is part of the Spirit Hives whiskey selection. It is bottled at 58.7% ABV, carrying a 25-year age statement, in a 700 ml bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: First a few floral aromas, then the orange peel gains the upper hand, limes are added and then pineapple; on the palate: On the palate first again the pineapple with lime and other fruit notes. Very creamy; finish: Very long, balanced and still the fruity notes. Sensational for such an old barrel.

Serving & pairing
Serve neat with a few drops of water to open the aromas. Lighter styles suit smoked salmon and shortbread; peated styles suit blue cheese and oysters.
Single malt or blended Scotch?
Single malt means one distillery, 100% malted barley, pot stills. Blended Scotch mixes malt whisky from several distilleries with lighter grain whisky, aiming for consistency and approachability. Blended malt (no grain whisky) sits between the two. Neither is inherently better; single malts show one distillery’s character while good blends show balance.
