Nose: Play-dough or raw yeasty bread dough. Faint vanilla. Grassy. White tea. Even after some time to open up, it’s very light and shy. The distillery’s source water is piped 30 miles from Loch Lee, and is reportedly “very” soft. Perhaps this soft water contributes to the creamy body and light, floral, shy nature of the whisky. Happily for whisky lovers, Glencadam is bottled at 46% ABV with no chill filtration nor added coloring. The 10 year-old is exclusively aged in ex-bourbon barrels (probably refill, judging by the pale color).

Light, floral and delicate, with apple compote and pears, soft notes of vanilla and a whisper of coconut. Unripe banana, icing sugar and something creamy – custard with a hint of lemon, some honey and a cereal. There’s also a bread note.

In a region that was once thriving and buzzing with whisky activity, at the end of the previous century Glencadam was rapidly turning into the Last Of The Mohicans. North Port turned into a shopping centre, Glenesk is ancient history, as is Lochside. A bit further up north, even Glenurie Royal was axed during the whisky loch of the 1980s to be converted into flats. It’s with the community and the Dramface writing team that I'm kept up to date on the latest outturn of expressions or indie bottlings. As much as FOMO can strike us all at any time, there’s hundreds of expressions out there (not limited to scotch) that I won’t be able to sample. Through the sheer time it would take, and what flavours I am chasing at any given time, it’s not sustainable to try everything. But I’ll do my best to taste everything.

Note to self: proceed with caution on this one, Earie. I know for a fact that this particular whisky is held in very high regard by some of my esteemed colleagues here at Dramface, so being less than respectful to it is simply not an option – not if I want to avoid the righteous wrath of a hardened Glaswegian or two (are there any other, I wonder?).

Palate: Excellent creamy body, like a single-grain whisky. A bit sharp on the tongue burn, for a 46%. Resolves with marshmallow, raw pecans, and fresh sweet whipping cream. Light in character.
