Description

“The style from this distillery, of which I have little information, is light to medium bodied and this Cadenhead new bottling for 2018 lives up to this style but in a more spicy way.

In their words, “Hints of treacle, honeycomb, caraway and poppy seeds and cardamon”.”

CDADC is an interesting distillery. Rarely seen, and even less frequently heard about, their column-still rum is wonderful, bright and oily, with a slight medicinal note of cherries and anise. Dry, toasted spices and a golden-syrup-on-damper finish make this batch stand out from some of the other Venezuelan bottlings floating around the market.

Cadenhead is Scotland’s oldest independent bottler, having being founded in 1842 as William Cadenhead Limited Wine & Spirit Merchants. It was family owned until it was bought by another family company J&A Mitchell & Co, owners of the Springbank and Glengyle distilleries. Whyte & Mackay-owned Jura was first built in 1810 on the island that shares its name. A chequered history of closures, dismantles and rebuilds has led to a hugely popular distillery, particularly in the UK. A cult loved distillery, they tend to be reasonably weighty whiskies with gentle smoke. We think it shines brightest currently in the hands of independent bottlers.
