Edradour Distillery

Edradour 12 Years Old Caledonia

ABV: 46% 70 cL

This small batch release from Edradour is a unique single-cask release selected by songwriter Dougie Maclean and named after one his famous songs - Caledonia. It was aged for 12 years, first in a bourbon cask, before being re-racked into sherry, resulting in rich and nutty malt with notes of  warming spice. 

Nose

Sultanas and figs balanced with honey.

Palate

Liquid Christmas cake, toasted almonds and just a hint of orange spice. Just a little water opens up the depth and complexity as the fruitiness and Oloroso sherried wood comes to the fore. The result of traditional, time tested distillation processes rolls over the tongue like syrup.

Finish

Gently warming, spicy and dry from a time long forgotten.

Edradour is the smallest single-malt whisky distillery in Scotland, located near Pitlochry in the Highlands. Founded in 1825 as Glenforres by a group of local farmers, the distillery was renamed Edradour in 1837, derived from the Gaelic Eadar Dhà Urr, meaning "between two rivers," reflecting its picturesque location.

Over the years, Edradour had had a colourful history, changing ownership multiple times, including a period when it was owned by the New York Mafia. Despite its many changes, the distillery has always stayed true to producing high-quality whisky, with a particular emphasis on sherry cask ageing.
