Description
The Glencadam Reserva Andalucía Single Malt Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish is an exceptional single malt Scotch whisky that perfectly showcases the art of cask maturation. With an alcohol content of 46% vol. and a special maturation in Oloroso sherry casks from Andalusia, this whisky offers a unique combination of Scotch whisky tradition and the characteristic aromas of southern Spanish sherry. The additional maturation in these specially selected casks gives Glencadam an impressive depth and complexity that will captivate whisky lovers.
On the nose, the Glencadam Reserva Andalucía presents itself with an intense variety of aromas dominated by rich sherry notes. Aromas of dried fruits such as raisins and figs unfold, paired with warm spices and a hint of chocolate. The combination of Oloroso sherry and the classic Glencadam characteristics creates an elegant and harmonious composition of aromas. On the palate, the whisky is full-bodied and round with a pronounced sweetness characterized by fruit compotes, caramel and spices. The finish is long and warming, with a fine sherry spice and a pleasant oak note that brings the taste to a gentle close.

Tasting notes:
Color: Deep gold with amber reflections.
Nose: Rich aromas of dried fruit, figs and raisins, accompanied by warm spices and a hint of chocolate.
Taste: Full-bodied and round with notes of stewed fruit, caramel and spicy nuances resulting from the sherry cask maturation.
Finish: Long and warming, with a subtle sherry spice and an elegant oak note.
The Glencadam Reserva Andalucía Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish is ideal for pure enjoyment, especially at room temperature, to fully develop the complex aromas. However, it also becomes even softer and more accessible with a small splash of water. The whisky is an excellent accompaniment to sophisticated dishes such as mature cheese, chocolate desserts or a roast with a fruity sauce. It is also an excellent choice to enjoy on a special occasion, as its sophistication and complexity round off the moment perfectly. An outstanding whisky for anyone who appreciates both sherry flavors and the traditional Scottish art of whisky. (automated translation)

Verbreitet ein Gefühl von Süden, ist leicht und von der Nase bis zum langen fruchtigen Nachspiel am Gaumen. Schwerer Rotwein begleitet jederzeit den Dram wie auf einer schattigen Terrasse. Immer ist ganz wenig frische Minze dabei.
