Whisky Review: Glencadam Origin 1825, Glencadam 25 years old

A fairly easy-drinking, approachable dram, not overly complex at all, showing floral, woody and fruity flavours. No need to add any water at all here, its profile reminds me of some sweet single grain whiskies. Definitely a good “starter whisky”, an interesting expression for beginners to start their malted journey. Finish: subtle and elegant. Nose: Sweet, frank and genuinely gourmet: an incredible red berries bouquet with cherry marmelade, floral fragrances and pleasant leathery notes. Palate: Hot spices, lemon grass, citrusy, oaky and fruity with dark chocolatey hints in the background – as its little brother the Origin 1825, this expression isn’t too complex either and rather straight-forward but offers a pleasant tasting experience. To be classified in the “everyday dram” category! Finish: warm and spicy
