  • Glencadam 15 Year Old Highland Single Mat Scotch Whisky Review
    Glencadam Whisky is one we have been recently recommended quite a bit. We had tried a few other expressions in years gone by but never really come back to it. We'll you're persistence has persuaded us that its worth another shot!
    We found the 15 year old a very light, fizzy dram and a lot fuller flavoured than we were expecting! We'll definitely be trying more Glencadam whenever we have then chance!
    What do you think of Glencadam? Is there a particular bottling that we shouldn't miss? Let us know in the comments!

    The 10 yo is 46% non chill filtered & natural colour. It's a very pleasant drop & good value for money in my humble opinion

      The 10 in my market is 46%/non-chill filtered, as you said, and $35 to $40! Best value in whiskey, IMO.

      it gives arran 10 a run for its money and can be had for £30-35 so it's excellent value these days...

      @@triplecap4307 These ladies literally own a whiskey shop and tasting room so I think they know their spirits. If you didn't hear that hey had to say, they were complaining that Glencadam's information is not readily available so it's hard to know a product when the producer isn't forthcoming with that info.

    Oh, so you jumped straight to the "Rather Dignified" one...
    ('Cause the 10yo is the "Rather Delicate" one. 🙂 One of my favorites. Unchillfiltered, no added colour and at 46% ABV, by the way.)
    Now I have to try their 15yo expression... 🙂

    We only have the 10yo in the market I'm in but I love it. Light, floral, summery type of whisky. Not usually style I like since I tend to prefer Islay and the weird sour ones like Old Pulteney, but I still love it.

  • @NunoFragoso

    Had a few glencadams, the 10yo, the 15yo and the andalucia, all very good, inviting whiskies that are very fit for their price.

    In my market here in the US, the 10 year old, 13 year old and 15 year old are all bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered and natural color. They are also exclusively bourbon cask finished, no sherry. Never saw the 21 year old but i would hazard a guess it's the same.
    I know you're very fancy ladies (but not snobs) but would encourage you to try or compare the 10 year old with another brand's 10 year old as it's still my favorite in the lineup. The youth at 10 years old really makes the fruity elements pop.
    I use the 10 year old as a gateway whiskey, especially for wine drinkers, since it's so accessible in taste, availability and price. Here in the US, I can get it for $40 ($35 on sale) which is an absolute steal for such a high quality spirit. And wine drinkers really vibe with its grapey, winey, fruity flavor and the entry price keeps the hesitancy to try a bottle much lower.
    For a starter whiskey, I used to recommend things like Glenmorangie 10. Monkey Shoulder, Glenfiddich 10, Naked Grouse, etc, and while all of those are still fine, I now exclusively recommend the Glencadam 10. What I secretly hope is that Glencadam 10, with its 46%, non-chill filtered and no color added quality, becomes more popular, gives the others a run for the money and makes them up their game with their starting line-up.

    I quite prefer Glencadam being quiet about their whisky, makes them a little cultish. I have just started a 10 and if the 15 is better I can't wait to try it. Another great video, thank you.

    Gorgeous distillate, and very much and old-school no-BS firm - one of my favs. Great cask policy as well. The 15 is mostly first fill bourbon, but my fav is the 21 (currently unavailable due to production gap) in refill casks. It's actually a surprisingly edgy new make - lots of bulky sulphury green vegetable character - which makes it quite slow-maturing IMO. I suspect this is why most of my younger bottles are best with a year or more of air in the bottle.

    • @TheGrailTastings

    According to the master blender one time on Vpub, the Glencadam core range up to 18 years old are all bourbon cask, no sherry at all. They have some 14 years old sherry finished, but was said not as good. I am not sure about the 21, though.

  • @DonnerPassWhisky
    @DonnerPassWhisky Год назад +1

    This 15 is subtle and complex but it's not a Whisky with an obvious hook so you need time and patients to appreciate it. The 10 is bright and spirity and for me pretty different from this 15. Both are great and intresting contrasts showing youth versus age with the same spirit and the same casks. Cheers lady's

    This is a great dram girls I love it. the 10 yr is bloody good and IMO more alcohol drive and for that reason I prefere it over Arran 10, the 13yr aint bad either.
