Description
The distillery says that Caledonia Edradour is a special single cask release selected by songwriter Dougie MacLean and named after his famous song 'Caledonia'. It is initially matured in bourbon barrels casks followed by an Oloroso finish of 4-5 years. An old fashioned whisky for those looking for how whisky used to be made.
Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Sultanas and figs balanced with honey. |
Taste |
Distillery: 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 Olorose sherried wood comes to the fore. The result of traditional, time tested distillation process rolls over the tongue like syrup. |
Finish |
Distillery: Gently warming, spicy and dry from a time long forgotten. |
