Glencadam 2006 16 Year Old Oloroso Sherry Butt | 63.5% | 70cl | Cask Strength Highland Single Malt
A rare and intensely rich cask strength expression from one of the Highlands' most quietly exceptional distilleries. Distilled in 2006 at the historic Glencadam Distillery — established in 1825 in Brechin, Angus — this special limited-edition single malt has spent 16 years maturing in oloroso sherry butts, the largest and most influential sherry cask type. Bottled at a commanding 63.5% ABV directly from the cask, this is an official distillery bottling that delivers Glencadam's elegant Highland character at its most concentrated, rich, and expressive.

Tasting Notes
- Nose: Immediately rich and full — dark dried fruits lead with raisins, prunes, and Medjool dates, layered with dark chocolate, polished leather, and a warming ginger spice. Sweet oloroso sherry depth underpins everything
- Palate: Bold and velvety at cask strength — Christmas cake richness with stewed plums, walnut, dark toffee, and sweet oak spice. Glencadam's characteristic floral elegance holds its own beneath the sherry intensity
- Finish: Long, warming, and deeply satisfying — dried fruit, cocoa, and a lingering oloroso sweetness that fades slowly with gentle oak and spice
Note: Tasting notes written from expert knowledge of this expression and cask type. Swap in official Glencadam notes if available.
