Glencadam Distillery opened in 1825, and, since then, little has changed and our award-winning Glencadam Highland Single Scotch Malt Whisky is still produced in the same fashion. Unchillfiltered and natural in colour.
A very special collection of casks were chosen for the Origin 1825 edition. This final selection consisted of a unique marriage of whisky matured in first-class American white-oak bourbon barrels with whisky “finished” in the finest Spanish Oloroso Sherry butts.
