Glencadam 1996 27 Year Old Reserva de Jerez Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish | 46% | 70cl | 1,691 Bottles
Nearly three decades in the making. The Glencadam 1996 Reserva de Jerez is a 27-year-old Highland single malt of exceptional depth and elegance — distilled in 1996, matured in carefully selected ex-bourbon American oak casks, and then married and finished in only the finest oloroso sherry butts sourced directly from Jerez, Spain. Bottled at 46% ABV without chill-filtration and with natural colour, just 1,691 individually numbered bottles were released. This is Glencadam at its most sophisticated: the distillery's characteristic floral Highland character elevated by a profound sherry influence drawn from the spiritual home of oloroso.

About Glencadam & The Reserva de Jerez
Founded in 1825 in Brechin, Angus, Glencadam is one of the Highlands' oldest and most understated distilleries — producing a delicate, floral, and elegant style of single malt that rewards patience and careful cask selection. The Reserva de Jerez release represents a direct connection between Glencadam's Highland heritage and the centuries-old sherry-making traditions of Jerez in southern Spain. By sourcing oloroso butts directly from Jerez — where the most concentrated and complex sherry is produced — the distillery has created a finish of extraordinary richness and authenticity. A whisky that takes 27 years to make and deserves to be savoured accordingly.
