Staff Pick Notes

Glencadam 15 has gone from strength to strength since a packaging facelift in 2009 when it was upped to 46%. An undersung distillery, Glencadam is now starting to stretch its wings and poised to do great things in the future. Right now they are producing very good value whiskies.

The finish is medium length with a restrained sweetness caressed by soft oak.
